Of the 907 citizens living in Essex in 2019, 652 were old enough to vote as of Jan. 26, according to U.S. Census Bureau data.

The bureau reported 301 of those people were female and 351 were male.

An agency of the U.S. Federal Statistical System, the Census Bureau is responsible for compiling statistical facts about the American people, places and economy. Data for this story was compiled from the bureau’s American Community Survey. Information from the survey helps to determine how federal and state funds are distributed.
