The Importance of Cooperating with the 2010 U.S. Census

The U.S. Census counts every resident in the United States, and is required by the U.S. Constitution to take place every 10 years.  We can’t move forward until you mail it back.  That's why it's so important that you fill in the form and promptly mail it back. With just 10 questions, the 2010 census questionnaire will take the average household about 10 minutes to complete.  Census information affects the number of seats Oklahoma occupies in the U.S. House of Representatives. And people from many walks of life use census data to advocate for causes, rescue disaster victims, prevent diseases, research markets, locate pools of skilled workers and more.

When you do the math, it's easy to see what an accurate count of residents can do for your community. Better infrastructure. More services.  A brighter tomorrow for everyone. In fact, the information the census collects helps to determine how more than $400 billion dollars of federal funding each year is spent on infrastructure and services like:

  • Hospitals
  • Job training centers
  • Schools
  • Senior centers
  • Bridges, tunnels and other-public works projects
  • Emergency services

What Businesses Need To Know About The 2010 Census.  In 2010, the U.S. census will define who we are as a nation.  Taken every 10 years, the census affects political representation and directs the allocation of billions of dollars in government funding.  Businesses can fulfill a valuable civic duty by partnering with the U.S. Census Bureau to ignite participation in this monumental event.  As a trusted business leader in your community, you can help educate your customers about the importance of completing and returning their census questionnaires, and help to ensure no one is left uncounted.
