Have You Filled Out Your Census Form Yet?

I bet not. How do I know? Because of this handy 2010 Census National Participation Rate Map:

http://2010.census.gov/2010census/take10map/

Fewer than 43 percent of Columbia Waterfront residents have sent in their forms, and in one part of our neighborhood, the number is a pathetic 21 percent!

It's just 10 simple questions, and will only take 10 minutes, so don't wait. The deadline is April 15.

The census helps determine how $400 billion in federal funds are distributed. By filling out your census form, you're helping to ensure that our neighborhood gets its fair share for infrastructure and services.

Not sure how to fill out your form? Head to the Community Board 6 District Office. Census workers are there to help you.

When: Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, 11:00 a.m.-4:00 p.m.
Where: 250 Baltic St., between Clinton and Court
