2020 Census Estimate: Stark at 74% of Residents Counted

CANTON, Ohio (News Talk 1480 WHBC) – In his role as chair of the Stark County Complete Count Committee, Commissioner Richard Regula has written to city, village and township leaders, urging them to do what they can to get their residents counted in the last three weeks of the 2020 Census.

He’s satisfied that Stark County is at an estimated 74-percent of residents counted, but Canton, Waynesburg and Wilmot were still under 60-percent.

He says 100-percent is the ideal goal, but the mid-80s is more realistic.

With a billion dollars in federal funding going to the county with a full count, Regula says that translates into $2900 per person.
