A census taker is an employee of the US Census Bureau who uses a computer to ask scripted questions to occupants of addresses chosen by statistical sampling and algorithms. The data gathered is heavily encrypted, transmitted, and combined with data from many addresses so that meaningful statistics can be created. These statistics are used at all levels of government to make decisions that affect everyone. The most important duty of any Census Bureau employee is ensuring that all data gathered, including names and addresses, are confidential and only known by Census Bureau employees with a need to know. Even the name of the survey a participant was involved in is extremely confidential. Any violation or breach of this duty will probably result in huge fines and jail time.
For an example of the statistics created, go to census.gov and click on "American Factfinder". Different surveys create different statistics.
