WV Census Response Rate is Lower than Neighboring States


If you have not already responded, you still have time! The 2020 Census will determine how much funding WV gets from the federal government for the next 10 years! If you check the chart below, you will see how WV's response rate compares to that of its neighboring states. Our neighboring states range between 65.2% and 66.8%. Only 53.5% of WV residents have responded. Not only do we have a lower population, but fewer of our residents are being counted! If you know anyone who has not filled out their census form, please encourage them to do it now.
