2020 Census: Only 8 Days Left

The 2020 Census appears to be on track to end on September 30th. New York City needs a full count.

It is absolutely essential --for fair representation in government, equitable public funding, and much more-- that all New Yorkers participate in the Census. Go to my2020census.gov ([link removed]) or call 844-330-2020 to complete your Census today -- it's fast and confidential.

Census workers are in the field, following up with Upper West Siders who still have not responded. Please assist their efforts -- if you live in a building with a doorman, please urge building management to allow Census workers with identification to enter and do their job.
