Through partnership programs with the Census Bureau, the Kem C. Gardner Policy Institute was involved in multiple ways in the build-up and roll-out of the 2020 Census decennial enumeration. As data is released, we will continue our involvement in the 2020 census by providing Utah-based insights. The information below provides information into background and process and new data as it becomes available.

Fact Sheet: Utah’s 2020 Census Apportionment, Resident, and Overseas Populations
Utah’s status as the fastest-growing state in the nation this decade could not match the absolute growth in other states, which drives the apportionment process. With an apportionment population of 3,275,252, Utah’s congressional delegation remains at four seats for the next decade, with each seat representing approximately 818,813 Utahns.
What’s New in Utah’s 2020 Census Geography?
Geography is a foundational aspect of the census, providing the framework for the once-a-decade count of population and housing. The U.S. Census Bureau released Utah’s 2020 census geographic boundaries in February, with the corresponding demographic data planned for release in September 2021. Though census count data are not available yet, census geography provides insight into the decade’s population change and defines the upcoming data’s reference locations.
