The 2020 Census will provide a snapshot of the Erie County community and our entire nation including our population, where we live and so much more.  Your response matters.

Health clinics. Fire departments. Schools. Federal dollars for Libraries, Roads and Highways. The census results can shape many different aspects of our community.
The Census results will help determine how billions of dollars in federal funding flow into states and communities each year. 
The results determine how many seats in Congress each state gets. 
Taking the census is mandated by the U.S. Constitution in Article 1, Section 2: The U.S. has counted its population every 10 years since 1790.

Join Buffalo & Erie County Public Libraries to make sure that every Erie County resident, regardless of age, race or immigration status, is fairly and accurately counted in Census 2020.
