Saw this city website linked to in a story on 2020 Census response rates in LA City. I haven't had time to figure out what data set the city is using for these maps, but it's interesting to look at your census tract:

With the COVID-19 Pandemic it is going to alter the actual outcome of the 2020 census, like when 9-11 happened, it did the same.

9/11 was 8 and 1/2 years before the 2010 census. How did it affect the census?

The 2000 census figures were always "not accurate" until 2010 census.

I don't know what you filled out, but it wasn't the census if you filled it out 6 months ago. The census kicked off in Jan in one town in Alaska, everywhere else was mailed out in March.

Nothing will happen. You will get knock on your door from census 3 different times, after which they will try to talk to your neighbors.

Uhh...no. The 2000 census is meant to record what the population was on April 1, 2000, not Sept 12, 2001. It mostly did that, though it is never 100% accurate.

Do you care that the way funding is allocated for public schools is determined in part by the U.S. Census....don't you have children of your own?
