Success of Census Is in Your Hands
Census Reminder for Those Who Didn't Return a Form
Census Day (April 1, 2010) may have officially passed, but it's not
too late to participate. We encourage those who have not yet completed
a questionnaire to either fill out the form or to cooperate when census
takers request the information. Filling out the form is quick and easy;
it should take no more than 10 minutes and will benefit our community.

Census Reminder for Those Who Didn't Receive a Questionnaire
If you did not receive a US Census questionnaire (most likely because
you pick up your mail at a post office box), please do one of the
following to participate in the count:
- Until April 19, 2010: pick up a form at a local Questionnaire
Assistance Center. To find a center near you, go to the
2010 Census
web site and scroll down to the options under "Didn't receive a form?"
- Call the Census 2010 Help Line toll-free at 866-872-6868 to answer
the census survey questions over the phone.
- Call the Census 2010 Help Line toll-free at 866-872-6868 to ask
that a survey questionnaire be sent to a post offce box.
Remember, the community's fair share of road and federal funding and
Pennsylvania's representation in Congress is at stake.
