Filling out the Census online is quick and quite easy but if you’d like a little help why not combine it with a fun night out. A Census booth is set up at the Duchesne County Fair this week and trained Census workers are available to help visitors complete their 2020 Census online. Local officials have been urging the community to make the Census a priority as millions of dollars in funding are at stake. “I never completely understood the importance of the Census prior to becoming an elected official,” shares Duchesne County Commissioner Irene Hansen. “Funding for so many critical services including emergency, recreation, roads, schools, safety and even senior services are tied to a correct Census. It literally puts your county and state on the map. Even our representation in the state and federal legislative process is based on population. Let’s be counted!” Individuals can fill out the Census online at www.my2020census.gov or head over to the Fair and get it done while having fun!
