SAN JOSE SPOTLIGHT: San Jose leads big cities in census responses but still has far to go

San Jose is ranked high among big cities when it comes to completing the U.S. Census, but the Bay Area’s largest city is still behind its mark from last decade, likely due to the ongoing coronavirus pandemic, officials say.

With 63.3 percent of its census completed, San Jose is No. 1 among cities that have more than 1 million residents, according to the U.S. Census Bureau.
