The 2020 Census counts every person living in the United States and five U.S. territories—once, only once, and in the right place.
This census is conducted every 10 years by the U.S. Census Bureau, a nonpartisan government agency. Tribal, state, and local governments; community-based organizations; faith-based groups; schools; businesses; the media; and others play a key role in developing partners to educate and motivate residents to participate in the 2020 Census. The 2020 Census provides an opportunity for everyone to be counted.
