Everyone Counts

Hospitals. Fire departments. Schools. Even roads and highways. The census is more than just a head count, it can shape many different aspects of Garner and Wake County.

The Latest

Census invitations will arrive between March 12 - 20 with instructions for responding online.

  • Areas less likely to respond online will also receive a paper questionnaire.

  • If you need help completing the 2020 Census, you can call a toll-free phone number.

  • Plan to include everyone you expect to live in your home on April 1.

  • You can respond online or by phone in one of 13 languages and find assistance in many more.

  • Learn more at 2020census.gov

Why is the Census Important? 

Results are used to help determine:

  • How more than $675 billion in federal funding is distributed to states and communities. These funds are spent on schools, hospitals, roads, public works and other vital programs.

  • The number of seats each state gets in Congress.

  • How state and local officials draw boundaries for congressional districts, state legislative districts and school districts.

It’s critical that you’re counted. By April 2020, households will receive an invitation to participate in the census. You'll then have three options to respond.

Wake County is committed to educating our residents about the importance of the U.S. Census. Our representatives will be out and about at local events over the next year. Be on the lookout for the Wake Counts team, and get your questions answered one-on-one. See where they’ll be here.
