CENSUS 2000 IS
COUNTING ON YOU

 The United States Constitution mandates a census every ten years to determine how many seats each state will hold in the U.S. House of Representatives. Additionally, community leaders and local planners use census data to determine the best locations for schools, police & fire stations, hospitals, clinics, libraries, parks and other public facilities. Every year, over $100 billion in federal funding, and even more in state funds, are awarded to localities based on census numbers. Likewise, larger local business such as supermarkets, movie theaters and restaurants use this data in their decision making process. By law, the Census Bureau is prohibited from sharing these records with other governmental agencies such as; welfare agencies, immigration / naturalization service, the Internal Revenue Service, courts, police, and the military. 
Beginning mid-March 2000 census questionnaires will be delivered and April 1 has been designated nationally as Census Day. About 83% of respondents will receive a short form asking only seven subjects: name, sex, age, relationship, race, and housing - rented or owned. It will take approximately 10 minutes to complete. One of six households will be asked to fill out a longer form which asks 34 subjects including, education, ancestry, employment, disability, and house heating fuel. It will take approximately 38 minutes to complete.
Your participation in the Census 2000 is crucial, safe and easy. Just complete the form and mail it back. For additional information visit the Census Bureau's web site @ http://www.census.gov or phone a regional center at 1-888/ 325-7733.
