"The actual enumeration shall be made within three years after the first meeting of the Congress of the United States, and within every subsequent term of 10 years, in such manner as they shall by Law direct."
-- Article I, Section 2 of the Constitution of the United States
In 2010, it will be time for another census of the population of the United States. According to C.N. Le, Professor at the University of Massachusetts, "...an accurate count of the U.S. population forms the basis for many important but often overlooked political, economic, and social decisions that are made that end up affecting our daily lives."
The Complete Count Committee (CCC) for the City of Valley is a volunteer committee composed of a cross section of our citizens that has been established to increase awareness about the census and to motivate our citizens to respond so that Valley will have as complete and accurate census information as possible.
