Thanks to a tremendous community effort, Seattle achieved one of the highest 2020 Census participation levels in the nation!
What’s next? What happens with that Census data? How will the City of Seattle use this data to make decisions? How is any of this information useful to you?
Get answers to these questions and more from the I Love Census Data virtual conversation series.
This series brings together community members, city agencies and staff, data professionals, and community artists for interactive presentations and conversation. You will learn about city facts and statistics and, most importantly, talk about what all this Census data tells you about your city.
We worked to connect the data to the lived experiences of real people in Seattle and to ensure the information is shared with policymakers, community leaders, and the public.
I Love Census Data is a collaborative effort between the Seattle Department of Neighborhoods, the City of Seattle Demographer, and the Seattle Office for Civil Rights.
