Don't Lose Your Home
During the Corona virus, people who rent in San Mateo County can't lose their homes, even if they can't pay rent for now. This is called a ban on evictions. Your landlord or manager can't evict you right now, during the Corona virus.
See the posts for March 23 and March 19 if you need help paying rent.

U.S. Census
Every house in the U.S. will get mail from the United States Census. It's very important that everyone answer the questions. You can answer in many different languages online, by phone, or by mail. The U.S. Census counts every person in the U.S., not just citizens - everyone. This information is used to decide how much money goes to schools, streets, transportation, hospitals, libraries, food for children and families, and more. If you don't answer the questions, we will get less money. It is important for everyone to answer the questions.
Help Paying Rent
You can get help paying rent from the Legal Aid Society of San Mateo County. Call and leave a message at (650) 517 – 8939. Remember, San Mateo County includes all the cities from Daly City to Menlo Park to Half Moon Bay. It's not just the city of San Mateo.
