Census 2010 is Hiring

       During each Decennial survey, the U.S. Census Bureau opens administrative offices in each state approximately a year and a half in advance of the April 1st "official" date. The Census' Boston Regional Office has just posted six (6) positions for both Hartford and Bridgeport. Similar positions are being hired throughout New England.

       The Complete Count program was developed for Census rehearsals held this (2008) year. The Governor's Office is organizing this initiative here in Connecticut. Planning has already started.

       A 2010 Census Planning Document is also in its development stages. It is initially based on 2000 Census tract data, and will be updated to include ACS data from 2005 and 2005 and other releases, as they become available.

       Many Connecticut Cities and Towns participated in the Local Update of Census Addresses (LUCA).   CtSDC thanks these communities for helping assure an accurate and authoritative count that is the basis for significant federal-to-state funding for Connecticut.
