Targeting the Hard To Count: A Tool for Improving Census Coverage

The Census 2010 Hard-To-Count Interactive Map [www.CensusHardToCountMaps.org] provides a powerful, interactive mapping tool for community groups, local governments, the media, public officials, and others to help boost participation in the 2010 Census. The CUNY Mapping Service has combined the Census Bureau’s Planning Database of tract-level mail return rates from the 2000 Census with additional data to more fully portray the census tracts with concentrations of the hard-to-count population. In this webinar Steve Romalewski will demonstrate how to use the Interactive Map to locate and profile the hard-to-count populations. Steve will also discuss additional data on response rates to the 2010 Census that the Census Bureau is planning to release in April.

Participants will be able to ask questions following the presentation.
