Census Response Rates In Fort Lauderdale

I just received an interesting email from Robbi Uptegrove, Vice-mayor Bruce Robert's assistant, that details the census response rates by neighborhood.  Imperial Point's census tract is near the top of the chart with a 68% response rate, although that is a bit shy of the 2000 rate of 72%.  Compared to the rest of the country, however, we are just average in terms of our rate of return.  I have included the breakdown as an excel sheet if you want to play with the data a little.

Comparative stats:

                    as of 4/19   2000

City Overall:           60%       58%

Broward County:         65%       67%

Florida                 68%       69%

U.S.                    69%       72%
