Greetings from the Village of Royal Palm Beach and the U.S. Census Bureau
Census 2010 is fast approaching! A complete and accurate census count for our community is extremely important. Over $300 billion dollars in federal funding is allocated each year based on Census numbers. The first major Census 2010 operation is Address Canvassing which begins in April. This operation helps to confirm our Master Address File and make sure the 2010 Census Questionnaires are mailed to legitimate and existing addresses. To complete this operation the U.S. Census Bureau will hire thousands of new employees. These hires will be stationed out of their homes and generally work out of their community. We feel that that this will not only help our residents by providing employment opportunities in these tough
economic times, but it will benefit our community as a whole by helping to ensure a complete and accurate census count.
