City of Creedmoor recently issued the following announcement.
Census Deadline
Date:09/30/2020 (all day)
Census 2020 Deadline
Creedmoor residents have the opportunity to participate in the 2020 US Census through a variety of methods. The census is important to our community because the results can affect many aspects of life over the next ten years, particularly related to over $675 billion in annual federal funding as well as state and county funding. Other factors influenced by the census are funding for street and sidewalk projects, representation in the NC Legislature and US Congress, school districts, and emergency services.
Every ten years the federal government spearheads a non-partisan effort to generate a true and accurate count of every person living in each city, county, and state. The City of Creedmoor is committed to assisting with this effort in order to achieve a complete count of our residents. Over the next few weeks, the City will publish multiple Public Service Announcements and social media posts to remind residents of the importance of participation because every individual counts!
The census form will only ask for basic information about the people living in your household as of April 1, 2020. The census will NEVER ask for your social security number, bank or credit card account numbers, or any political questions. All information received by the Census Bureau, including information you fill out on your form or give to a Census worker, is protected by federal privacy laws. Options to participate will include online, by phone, or return mail.
If you do not respond in one of these ways, an employee with the US Census Bureau will visit your home to assist with the process beginning the week of August 11. All employees of the US Census Bureau will immediately present an ID badge (containing name, photo, expiration date, and a Department of Commerce seal) to confirm they are official representatives of the Census Bureau.
For more information, or to participate in the 2020 Census, visit the Census Bureau website.
