In the 2010 decennial census, 75.8% of New York's households mailed back their questionnaire, requiring more costly and difficult in-person follow up from the CensusBureau to count the remaining 24.2%.
Based on the latest census estimates, approximately 36% of New York's current population (or 7,099,946 people) lives in hard-to-count neighborhoods. (These arecensus tracts where almost a quarter or more households did not mail back their census questionnaire in 2010.) Without higher self-response, more households in these and other neighborhoods in New York are at risk of being missed in the 2020 census.
