CENSUS 2010

The census count is underway. As of May 13th, the participation rate in Signal Hill was 67%. This compares to a national rate of 71% for California and 72% nationally. However, it's not too late to be counted for Signal Hill!
On May 1st, census takers began going door-to-door to the roughtly 1/3 of households that had not yet mailed back their forms. The census taker will ONLY ask 10 simple questions - the same that were on the mailed forms. If no one answers at a particular household, they will leave a door hanger featuring a phone number to call to schedule a visit at a time convenient for the resident. If you prefer not to speak to the speak to the census taker, you can still mail in your census form. If you need one, you can stop by City Hall to pick one up.

We encourage everyone to participate in the Census. For more information, please visit the Census 2010 website at:

Please note that the Census Bureau has advised us that their door-to-door enumeration effort will extend through the end of July 31, 2010!
