Why it Matters
Once a decade, the census counts our population and households, providing the basis for reapportioning congressional seats, redistricting and distributing federal funds.
- Each year, more than $675 billion is distributed based on census numbers.
- These dollars impact everything from housing to education and health care.
- Census 2020 will drive decisions until 2031.
