2010 Census
The 2010 Census is important for the Village of Gurnee. Census data is not only used to help make decisions about what community services to provide, but it helps to determine how $300 billion in federal funds are distributed to local, state, and tribal governments each year.
The census consists of only ten questions and takes about ten minutes to complete. Questionnaires will be mailed to every household during the month of March 2010. Once received, residents should complete the form and return it immediately. Your participation is key to the success of the Census! For more information about the 2010 Census, please visit www.census.gov.
