Be Counted in 2020 U.S. Census 

The census is so important and required by law. Please complete the short 10-minute 2020 Census questionnaire online through the U.S. Census Bureau's website at www.My2020Census.gov. Responding online helps conserve natural resources, save taxpayer money, and process data more efficiently. The Census Bureau also is offering American Sign Language support and has a toll-free Telephone Display Device (TDD) number of (844) 467-2020. The census also can be taken over the telephone. The Census Bureau is operating toll-free language assistance lines in many languages including the three most common languages spoken in Southern Nevada:

  • English (844) 330-2020 
  • Spanish (844) 468-2020 
  • Tagalog (844) 478-2020

Households that don't respond early this spring will receive a paper questionnaire that can return by mail. If you do not respond, a census taker in-person will come to your house between May and July.
