Wyoming residents are generating new momentum in responding to the 2020 Census. As of Tuesday, April 14th, the statewide response rate for Wyoming is at 39.6 percent. This represents a large increase in self-response for Wyoming and puts the state in a six-way tie with California, Iowa, Montana, Nebraska, and South Dakota for the highest daily total self-response rate in the nation. However, Teton County is well below the state and national response rate at 13.1 percent and Sublette County is at 8.5 percent. One of the biggest challenges facing response rates in Wyoming is the fact that approximately 23 percent of residents live in an area that have city-style addresses but may use P.O. boxes to receive their mail, or it can be homes that contain rural route or highway contract route addresses. These locations have not yet received a formal 2020 Census invitation or paper questionnaire, which is contributing to the lower statewide self-response numbers. So far, the national self-response rate is 48.6 percent.
