2020 Census response rate very low in our region
(PLEASE SHARE) As of today, May 12, 2020 the U.S. National Census rate of response was 58.6% and New York’s rate of response was 53%. Clinton, Essex and Franklin are below the National response rate and only Clinton County was above New York’s rate of response at 56.2%. Essex county was at 30.7% and Franklin was at 41.5%. There is a lot of work to be done.
There are three reasons people need to take 10 minutes out of their day to self-respond to the 2020 Census. It’s safe, it affects funding in our community and it’s our civic duty.
There are three ways the Census can be filled out, online, by phone, or by completing the mailing they received.
