Michigan Census Performance Rated High

With the official count now closed, Michigan appears to have performed fairly well in the U.S. Census.

Federal officials say our self-response rate of 70 percent – those who either reported their household information online, or by mail – was the eighth-best in the nation.

Keweenaw County didn’t help much – only 30 percent of estimated households self-responded – the second-worst in the state.

The City of Detroit didn’t pull its weight, either, with barely more than half of residents self-responding.

Door-to-door census workers picked up the slack. The Census Bureau estimates that 99.9 percent of Michigan households were eventually counted.
