Someone came to my home to interview me for the American Community Survey (ACS). Is this legitimate?


The ACS is part of the Decennial Census Program. It is a legitimate survey sent to a small percentage of our population on a rotating basis.

If you have been contacted about the ACS and want to verify that a mailing, text, email, call, or in-person visit is legitimate go to census.gov/verify or contact us at 301-763-INFO (4636) or 800-923-8282.
