Remember - the 2020 Census is Here!
The 2020 Census is happening now. You can respond online, by phone or by mail. And your response matters. Health clinics. Fire departments. Schools. Even roads and highways. The census can shape many different aspects of our Mamaroneck community. So please, take the time now (while you're home) to complete the questionnaire you received in the mail. You may receive multiple mailings from the Census Bureau in March and April, including an invitation to respond to the 2020 Census and follow-up postcards and letters. When responding online to the 2020 Census, you will be prompted to enter your unique Census ID. This ID number acts like a PIN and can be found on the Census Bureau invitation to respond. All Census IDs have 12 characters (letters and numbers). Want to know what to look for in the mail? Click here.
