Lincoln County residents should be aware of and encouraged to complete the 2020 US Census for their household. Lincoln County is among the Oregon counties with low ‘Response Rates’ according to information at https://2020census.gov/en/response-rates.html.

For the first time, in 2020 the U.S. Census Bureau will accept responses online. The process will be quick and secure. You can respond to the census in less time than it takes to finish your morning coffee. You’ll still be able to respond by mail.

What matters to you? Schools? Transportation? Hospitals? Data from the census will help inform planning efforts for all these important community resources.

Please help ‘get out the count’ and secure Lincoln County’s – and our community’s – share of federal funding, representation, and planning and support services for the next decade by completing the census at https://2020census.gov/.
