@Mz iMac If that was a dig to my question this is what my e-mail said:

U.S. Census Bureau<covid.survey@census.gov>

If I get one it's going in the trash.

@grandma2pkmh Not a dig. You did say you checked to verify if legit. I could not find a "Covid Survey" on the list.

I believe participation is voluntary for those surveys. I kept getting pesky calls from the census workers and they wouldn’t identify the purpose of the call. My census was completed online.

I got a survey similar to that with questions like 'do have enough to eat', 'are you depressed'. do you feel hopeless' from the city I live in. It also came by e-mail.

I don't care what it's called. AFAIC, it's "Big Brother with Knobs On."

@DiAnne

Sounds like some of the same questions included in the multipage questionaire I have to fill out every year before my annual physical. Also includes questions like "do you ever hear voices when no one is there", "do you ever feel someone is trying to hurt you". I might not have the exact same words but that's the jist of it".

If I got one I wouldn't even bother open it and it would be deleted.

I filled the original Census on line and don't remember if I had to give them an e-mail address or not.

@shaggygirl

It may have been similar but it was directly related to Covid. The city was trying to identify people who were alone and needed help. This was at the very beginning.
