Census Warning
The Better Business Bureau issued a warning to be alert for possible scams in the name of census taking this year. Currently, census workers are verifying only two address items: How many people live in your household; and how many are adults. You are not required to answer any other questions at this time. Subsequently, census takers will visit to ask about names, age, gender, race and other relevant data.
BE AWARE THAT:
1 – Every census taker will have a badge, a Census Bureau canvas bag, and a confidentiality notice.
Ask to see these items before answering questions.
2 – No matter what is shown you, DO NOT give your Social Security number, credit card or banking information. DO NOT invite them into your house.
3 – Eventually, census takers may contact you by phone or mail. They will not contact you by email.
Do not open any attachments purporting to be from the Census Bureau.

TEACHING NOTES
Give your students the data from the census tracts of the
school you teach at. Or have them find the census tracts. Have them
do a statistical analysis and show them that the numbers that they
are working with are for their family and neighbors.
