Yes, the Roman census did count women, but they were not typically counted as individual citizens in the same way men were. Women were usually listed under their male relatives, such as fathers or husbands, and their status was often tied to the male head of the household. The primary purpose of the census was for taxation and military service, roles predominantly associated with men.
So that they could keep their land, house, wealth, and slaves.
to determine how much taxes they would pay
Most countries have a census every 10 years but a census doesn't just count men.
During the time of Caesar Augustus, census counters, or officials conducting the census, typically wore simple Roman attire, which included a toga for men and a stola for women. The toga, a distinctive garment of Roman citizenship, symbolized authority and status. These officials would also carry tools for recording information, such as wax tablets or styluses, to document the details of the populace accurately. Their attire and tools underscored their official role in the important civic duty of conducting the census.
The census was an income assessment for taxation purposes as well as a head count. Before military service became voluntary it was used the get the names of the men of military ages (17 to 45) for the draft.
In the US they register for the military draft.
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.
Jewelry was important to the Roman women, not the men. One ring in addition to his signet ring was considered adequate for men.
