Population of Sunny Isles Beach is 19,540 people (as of April 2009)
The United States Constitution requires that the number of people living in the United States be counted every 10 years. People of all ages, races, ethnic groups, citizens and non-citizens alike, regardless of legal status, are to be counted in the 2010census. The United States Department of Commerce’s Census Bureau is responsible for the count.
The 2010 Census will find out how many people live in the City of Sunny Isles Beach and help determine how much funding we will receive from the federal government for education, healthcare, job training, transportation, senior services, and other critical services important to us all.
The 2010 Census is a questionnaire with 10 simple questions that will be mailed to you in March of 2010. You will be asked to answer questions about yourself and each person who lives with you. You then must mail back the completed form by April 1, 2010. All personal information you provide in answer to any question on the form is completely private and will not be shared with anyone else. The information you provide is only used for statistical purposes.
By law, the U.S. Census Bureau must submit state population counts to the President of the United States by December 31, 2010 to kick-off the process of deciding what Congressional district you live in and ultimately, who will represent you.
