Why is an accurate Census count important?
The 2020 Census is critically important to the state of New Mexico. A mere 1% undercount of New Mexico’s population in 2020 would result in a $780,000,000 loss of federal funds over a 10-year period. At risk are Financial Assistance programs for Health Care, Food Assistance, Public Education, and Community Development. Federal Funding for Transportation, Housing, and Small Business Development are also at stake.
