Don’t forget to return your Town Census

Don’t forget to return your Town Census

The annual town census has been mailed to your home address. It is important to complete and return the form.

If you are a Northborough resident and have not received the form, you can contact the Town Clerk’s office at townclerk@town.northborough.ma.us or download the Census form from the town website.

Why return the form?

  • It is used to assist public safety and emergency responders.
  • It is used to apply for grants.
  • It is used to assist the Town and State in calculating State and Federal aid.
  • It is used to project future school enrollment and for registration outreach.
  • It is used to update the voter list – if you are a voter and do not respond, you could be made inactive on the voting list.
  • It serves as proof of residency, which residents need to qualify for veteran’s benefits, in-state tuition at state schools and other programs

Also included on the census form is the dog registration form. By law, all dogs six months of age or older must be registered.
