Please Respond to the Census
A Message from the Town Clerk

Reasons to respond to Town Census.

1.  This information helps emergency responders (Police and Fire) to know how many people live at a residence.

2.   It provides the town with student population estimates for the coming year so that they can plan for the number of teachers and busses that will be needed.

3.  If you are a voter and do not respond, you will be made inactive on the voting list.  (At the polls you will need to show ID and fill out the Affirmation of Current and Continuous Residence form before voting.)

4.  It serves as proof of residency which residents need to qualify for veterans benefits (such as Welcome Home Benefit) and in-state tuition at state schools.

5.  It's the law!

The Census Bureau has begun a new program as part of the Census called the American Community Survey. The goal of the survey is to maintain more accurate information than can be provided by polling citizens every ten years. If you get one of these census documents in the mail, please respond to it. For more information on the program you can visit the American Community Survey web page by clicking here, or view their PDF brochure.
