If you don't get counted this year for the Census, in could cost DC $35,000 over ten years, till the next Census. Just imagine what $35,000 per person, once it trickles down, can do for local communities. Don't just think about it, find out the facts, here.

More importantly, you should also consider that the more people who get counted locally, the more likely we will have a larger and more diverse Advisory Neighborhood Commission in 2012, which is really not that far away; even with the most optimistic estimates, most major development projects — CityMarket at O, Convention Headquarters Hotel, Addisson Sq — will not be completed before then. Ward boundaries will likely change also for those of us who live near the boundaries. The more census numbers stay the same, the more things will stay the same in Shaw and Ward 2.
