2010 Census: Get Paid to Make a Difference
The Census takes a snapshot of the U.S. population, determining how many people reside within the nation's borders, who they are and where they live. This includes individuals of all ages, races, ethnic groups - both citizens and non-citizens. Data about how communities are changing are crucial to many planning decisions-such as neighborhood improvements, emergency preparedness and disaster recovery, public health, education, transportation, senior services and much more.
All personal information provided in the census form is kept private and is protected by federal law.
The 2010 Census questionnaire will be mailed or delivered to Epping residents in March, 2010, and the U.S. Census Bureau is aiming for a 100 percent response rate. Heads of households are required by law to accurately complete the short questionnaire that contains only a few simple questions regarding their residence.
The U.S. Census Bureau is now recruiting in Epping and surrounding towns. All census jobs have paid training. Census takers earn $15.00/hr and mileage reimbursement.
To schedule an appointment, please call our Portsmouth Census Office at 603-570-5120.
All Census jobs are part-time, temporary positions. More information, including a practice test, is available at www.2010censusjobs.gov. The United States Census is an Equal Opportunity Employer.
