What do you do when you participate in a census?
When participating in a census, you typically provide information about yourself and your household, including demographic details such as age, gender, race, ethnicity, and household composition. You may also be asked to provide information about your housing, employment, education, and income. It is important to answer the questions accurately and honestly to ensure that the census data is reliable and representative.
Why were Roman men required to register their families and slaves and wealth at census time?
The census in Roman times was an income assessment for taxation purposes. Not all men were required to do the registration. It was the patres familias (fathers of the family) who did this. These were oldest male in the family and were the heads of the household. They had to declare the assets of the household, how many family members there were and who they were because these assets belonged to him and because he had authority over the whole family. The other members of the household were not required attend the registration. This made the job of the officials who carried out the census easier and reduced the amount of inconvenience on the citizens. Since the slaves of a household were owned by the household, declaring how many slaves a household had was part of the declaration of the assets of the household. Only rich households could afford to own slaves.

Do you have to include any information other than number in household on your 2010 Census form?
I believe so. I haven't gotten mine yet, but the commercials are making me guess that it will also ask some political questions, such as, 'What your opinion is on health care reform?' because the ad says, "Your answers will help America improve and move on." You do need to answer all of the questions on your census form. Other than the number of people at your residence, information is required in order to determine the number and type of schools, the number of hospitals and roads for example. If you don't complete everything on your form, the Census Bureau will contact you for follow up. I have already returned my form and there was nothing on the form requiring an opinion such as political questions or about health care reform. Unless you receive one of the long forms, the only questions are about the ages and demographics of each member of the household.
What was the census of the US from 1610-1790?
There was no official US census until 1790. Some territories and states conducted censuses for various reasons before that, but there was no standard census. Beginning in 1790 a decennial census was conducted in accordance with the US Constitution that mandates the census as a means of apportioning the House of Representatives - determining how many representatives each state is entitled to. Up until 1850 the only data on the census was the name of the head of the household and the number of people of various ages, sex, and race who lived in the household. Beginning in 1850 the name of each person in the household was recorded along with their ages, place of birth, and occupation. The questions asked on the census have varied, with the most complete data collected from 1900 and after. The census of 1890 was mostly burned in a fire and only a small amount of it survived. By law the individual census information is not released for publication for 72 years to protect the privacy of individuals. The last census available for viewing is 1930.
What is a Sample census taker test question?
Go to www.2010censusjobs.gov and you will find a sample test. There are 28 questions and you are given 30 minutes to complete the actual test. I found it to be a very good exercise to prepare for the real thing. However, that practice exam is the general census job exam. It isn't stated anywhere if this is the same exam as the D-270 Supervisor exam or not.

How to Keep census workers off my property with force?
People in the United States are required to be counted during the census, which is conducted every ten years. This generally means that the names and ages of everyone in a household must be provided to the Dept. of Commerce, which administers the census. This requirement is described in Title 13 of the United States Code. Most people respond to the census by completing a form mailed to most households. Those household that don't return the form are visited by a census worker to conduct the census personally. The use of force to repel a census worker is a federal crime. It's not likely you will be charged with a crime for failing to respond to the census (although it's possible), but the use of force against a census worker will almost certainly bring the police and the possibility of local or federal criminal charges.
Do you have to answer questions from the US Census Bureau?
