There are some estimates that nearly 145-thousand people could be undercounted in Illinois this year. The Census Bureau is putting on a “full-court press” to ensure an accurate count, as the final tally will determine how federal funds are allocated for programs that shape communities’ futures.
Illinois is seventh among states for its current self-response rate of about 67-percent. For the previous census in 2010, the final self-response rate was just over 70-percent.
