Wyoming Administration & Information - 2010 Census Wyoming Data

The U.S. Census counts every resident in the United States. It is mandated by Article I, Section 2 of the Constitution and takes place every 10 years. The data collected by the decennial census determine the number of seats each state has in the U.S. House of Representatives and is also used to distribute billions in federal funds to local communities. Census counts are used to update state legislative dustricts as well as voting and local government district boundaries. In addition, the State of Wyoming distributes various tax revenue to local governments based on the census population. Businesses and communities also depend on demographic data to make decision on marketing, school and transportation planning.

Different from the previous decennial censuses, 2010 Census questionnaires were all in short form. Therefore, the tabulation of the data covers demographic characteristics such as age, sex, race/Hispanic, household relationship only. Other topics such as economic, social, and housing characteristics are annually conducted through American Community Survey (ACS).
