U.S CENSUS IN 2010
The ten year census count of U.S. citizens will occur this year.
 U.S. Households may be contacted by mail, telephone, or visited by a U.S. Census worker.  Census workers will NOT ask you for Social Security, bank account, or credit card numbers nor will they ask you for donations.
BE AWARE of scammers who impersonate Census workers and ask for sensitive financial information to include SSN, bank account or credit card numbers. Actual Census workers will NOT ask for this type of information.  Secure proper identification if a census worker knocks on your door before providing information.
NOTE: Census workers will NOT contact you by e-mail, so be on the lookout for emails, NEVER click on `a  link or open attachments that are supposedly from the U.S. Census Bureau.
