Minnesota currently has the highest Census “self-response” rate in the nation (72.6%)! What’s even more impressive? Moorhead’s rate is even higher at 73.6%. But everyone needs to be counted. If you are one of the 26.4% who have not yet completed your Census form, you may get a visit from a Census enumerator to assist you. This in-person work is occurring between now and the end of the Census campaign on September 30. The US Census Bureau indicates staff will follow Federal, state, and local guidance for COVID-19 safety.
If someone visits your home to collect information for the 2020 Census, check to make sure they have a valid ID badge with their photograph, a U.S. Department of Commerce watermark, and an expiration date. Census workers may also carry Census Bureau bags and other equipment with the Census Bureau logo. If you still have questions about their identity, you can contact the Chicago Regional Census Center to speak with a Census Bureau representative.
