The Next Phase of the 2018 Census Test in Providence County is About to Begin!
Please help us spread the word and encourage participation in your community.
Starting Monday May 7, Census Takers (Enumerators) will begin to follow up with households that have not yet responded to the test, as part of the Nonresponse Follow-up operation. The majority will hit the field on Wednesday, May 9. Our Enumerators will be knocking on doors to collect data from the households on a handheld device.
This information was compiled to help you and your community members identify our Enumerators.
Identifying the Census Credential
Census Field Supervisors and Enumerators are issued their identification credential upon completion of training.
ID cards are printed on a white PVC card, and contains the following information:
*A passport-styled photo of the employee on a green background
*Department name in black uppercase text--US DEPARTMENT OF COMMERCE
*Employee name in red uppercase text--JOHN R SMITH
*Agency name in black uppercase text--U.S. CENSUS BUREAU
*Expiration Date in red text in the following format--M/D/YYYY AM or PM
In additional to the Census ID badge, each Enumerator will have:
- U.S. Census Bureau black canvass bag 16"x 12". A horizontal 6" band of white goes across the front of the bag printed "U.S. Census Bureau" with the official U.S. Department of Commerce Badge seal.
- Confidentiality Information Sheet - This 8.5" x 11.0" sheet, in landscape orientation, explains the Census Bureau's Confidentiality privacy laws and penalties. The document has white and sky blue background with black writing on one side in English. The other side is white and pale green background with black writing in Spanish. This form is clearly marked in upper left corner, United States Census Bureau, and U.S. Department of Commerce.
- A Notice of Visit Form - This 8.5" x 5.5" sheet, portrait orientation, indicates information for the respondent to follow up and complete interview within two days either online or by toll free phone number. The respondent's User ID is written on this form. United States Census Bureau is clearly written on the top left corner and U.S. Department of Commerce is clearly written in the top right corner. The English side has a white and sky blue background with black writing; the Spanish side is white and pale green with black writing.
- Car window placard - red and blue text and a white background. "Official Business. U.S. Department of Commerce Economic and Statistics Administration, U.S. Census Bureau. Frequent Stops."
The public can also contact the Providence Area Census Office at (401) 415-4829 to verify an Enumerator's employment.

The Town of North Smithfield has hired Northeast Revaluation Group LLC to conduct a statistical update to bring all real estate in town to fair market value effective December 31,2018 for the July 2019 tax roll. The process is mandatory according to RIGL 44-5-11.6. The law requires these statistical updates every 3 years and a full revaluation every 9 years.
Throughout the project Northeast Revaluation’s staff will be in neighborhoods throughout the town. The company will attempt to physically visit, measure and inspect properties that sold over the last 2 years, which helps in the analysis of determining fair market value. They also will be visiting any properties that have unfinished construction or have taken out building permits recently. All employees are required to carry identification and have their vehicles on file with the assessor’s office and police department. The process will last over the next several months and be completed in the spring of 2019. If there are questions or concerns contact the Assessor, Sarah Frew, 401-767-2200 ext 323 or Northeast Revaluation Group directly at 401-737-0300. Thank you for your patience throughout the process.
