Philadelphia Low Response Map In 2010, 73.1% of the county's households mailed back their 2010 census questionnaire, requiring more costly and difficult in-person follow up to enumerate the remaining 26.9%. Based on the latest census estimates, approx. 54% of Philadelphia County's current population (or 851,037 people) lives in hard-to-count neighborhoods (These are census tracts where almost a quarter or more households did not mail back their census questionnaires in 2010.) Without higher self-response, more households in these and other neighborhoods in the state are at risk of being missed in the 2020 census.

• 6/27/2019: SCOTUS ruled that the citizenship question will
not be added to the 2020 Census form “for now.”
• 7/16/2019: Judge Jesse Furman signed an order that
permanently blocks the current administration from
including the citizenship question to the 2020 census,
giving closure to the Supreme Court case in New York -
THE CITIZENSHIP QUESTION WILL NOT BE ADDED TO

● If undocumented immigrants in Philadelphia — estimated to number 50,000 —
decided not to respond to the census, that would translate to a loss of $1 billion
in federal funding over 10 years.Philly Counts

It was created to support Philadelphia organizations in promoting a complete and accurate count of all residents in the upcoming 2020 Census. The fund will provide grants to nonprofit community-based organizations with 501(c)(3) tax exempt status that agree to advance the work of the 2020 Census in neighborhoods that are identified to be at risk of being undercounted.
Philly Counts 2020 Action Fund Principles
● Community Involvement and Empowerment: The Fund will
undertake activities collaboratively with community based
organizations. Grants will aim to develop the skills and capacity of the
communities at risk of being undercounted in order to lay the
groundwork for a complete count.
● Responsive Flexibility: The Fund is structured to allow for quick
decisions and swift disbursement of funding to local organizations.
This functionality puts donations to work quickly. It also enables us to
pivot easily as we receive real-time information from our grantees
regarding priorities.Philly Counts 2020 Action Fund Sponsorship
