If you see some folks walking around you neighborhood this week wearing a bright orange vest, don’t be alarmed. It is a team from the U.S. Census Bureau doing preliminary work before the 2020 count.
Officials with the bureau said teams will be working all across Montague County throughout the week verifying addresses and canvassing the area for the 2020 census. The census will be sent out in April, 2020.
The team members will be wearing a bright orange vest, have an ID badge and carry a handheld laptop and census bag. They will be able to provide an explanation of their activities on paper for those who inquire.
