2020 Census Prince George's County
The U.S. census is a national population count that occurs every 10 years. The outcome of the census directly impacts Prince George’s County residents through congressional representation, Electoral College apportionment, business and economic development, and federally funded programs such as Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program, Children’s Health Insurance Program, and Women and Infant and Children. A successful 2020 census count in Prince George’s County is vital to our community’s well-being and overall quality of life. If undercounted, Prince George’s County could lose an estimated $18,250 per person in potential funding and resources over a ten-year period. Learn more at www.PGCensus2020.org.
