In the spring of 2025, the U.S. Census Bureau will be conducting a Special Census in Plainfield. A special census is a count of population and housing units. The process will be similar to the decennial census, residents will be able to respond online, in addition to the mail-in option. 

The Village requested a special census due to the community's  growth since 2020 (estimated 10% increase). It is important for residents to respond in order to ensure that the Village is accurately represented and receives its fair share of federal funding that is used for public safety, street repairs, and other municipal services.

Remember, your responses are confidential, secure, and protected.
