Murfreesboro city officials have announced plans to conduct a special census in 2025. This initiative is prompted by the belief that the population has grown significantly since the last count conducted by the U.S. Census Bureau in 2020. An accurate population count is crucial for Murfreesboro to receive additional shared state funding from Tennessee.
The State of Tennessee allocates funding to municipalities based on their population, which means an increased population count could result in more revenue for the city. This funding is essential for the city as it plans for crucial services and development, including road repaving, sidewalk construction, and park facility improvements.

The special census will be conducted for residents living within Murfreesboro city limits only. Those residing outside the city limits are encouraged to become Census Ambassadors to help spread awareness and ensure a comprehensive count. Residents living within the city are urged to participate in the census to help secure the necessary resources for community development.
