Attn Sublette County: Census forms will not be mailed to PO Boxes
by Pinedale Online!
April 15, 2020
We were just made aware that 2020 Census forms will not be mailed to anyone who gets their mail at a PO Box. They will just go to people who get their mail at their physical address.
That means that most of the residents in Sublette County will not get a Census form mailed to them. Residents here will need to proactively respond to the Census either using the easy online questionnaire or through the phone method.
After May 1st, there will be census takers who will go around to contact the physical addresses that have not yet been counted, but that is not an ideal situation for either the resident or census taker under the current coronavirus pandemic situation.
We strongly urge people who have not yet had their household counted to please take a moment to do so as soon as possible. The Census happens only once every ten years and the count impacts how Sublette County gets federal money and is represented in many fronts. The online website where you can take the census for your household can be found here: https://2020census.gov (it's fast and it's easy)
