Census Count Information

It has been brought to our attention that residents are concerned that they will not be counted in Storey County for the Census based on their zip code.  We took your concern to our local Census Office to get the facts.

The answer is you will be counted in the Census tract in which you live, and all tracts are coded to the County in which they are located, not the zip code.  Zip codes are from the Postal Service; Census Bureau uses its own system - the Census tract. 

If you have any additional questions on this matter, please feel free to contact your local Census office at 755-332-7340.

Storey County is committed to a complete count in 2010…you can rest assured that you will be counted as a Storey County resident!
