STARTING IN MARCH, CENSUS FORMS WERE DELIVERED TO EVERY RESIDENCE IN THE U.S. AND PUERTO RICO! The U.S. Census counts every resident in the U.S. and is required by the Constitution to take place every 10 years. The 2010 Census will help communities receive more than $400 billion in federal funds each year. What does this mean for you???? Well, in addition to helping your communities receive deferal funds for things like hospitals, job training centers, schools, senior centers, and emergency services; the Census will arm you with statistics to better know your community. To see recent reports on housing topics from the Census, visit U.S. Census Bureau Housing Topics. And, of course, the data collected by the census also helps determine the number of seats your state has in the U.S. House of Representatives, further ensuring our voices are heard. For our Canadian friends, your census is coming up as well. The Canada 2011 is scheduled for May 10, 2011. The 2011 Canadian Census will be the 15th decennial census since required by the Constitution Act of 1867. So, the white bags you see hanging on the door handles when you come up this Spring to open your cottages, take the time to view and fill out if you had not done already! See you soon, at Wicks Park Bar & Grille this season!!! And for all your Real Estate questions, just shoot me an email! Pam
