Press Release Number CB23-TPS.93
AUGUST 24, 2023 — The U.S. Census Bureau today released the official count of state and local governments from the 2022 Census of Governments Organization component and a Public Use File.
Counts are presented by characteristics such as government type, state, population size groups, and function. The data also provide detailed characteristics of school systems, that include independent school districts and dependent school systems.

The Census of Governments is a three-phased program that collects state and local government data every five years in years ending in “2” and “7.” The first phase is the Organization component.
