DATE: August 3, 2020
TO: Ruth Pérez, Council President
Members of Renton City Council
FROM: Armondo Pavone, Mayor
SUBJECT: Administrative Report
The City of Renton’s 2020 Census return rate sits at 70.2 percent, which is first in
South King County and fourth in the state for cities with 100,000 residents or more.
Earlier this month, census takers started going door-to-door to those Renton
households who have not yet responded. If one comes to your dwelling, please give
them your cooperation. These census takers are Renton residents, trained in all
COVID-19 guidelines, and authorized by the federal government to conduct these
interviews.
If you have questions about census takers, please contact the regional census center
at 213-314-6500 and speak with a Census Bureau representative.
