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.

What official count of people living in a place in ancient Rome?
In ancient Rome, the official count of people living in a place was known as the "census." Conducted every five years, the census recorded not only the number of citizens but also their property and social status. This information was crucial for tax assessment, military service, and political representation, helping the government maintain control and organization within the empire. The census was an important tool for understanding the demographics of Roman society.
When did Augustus issued a decree requiring a census of everyone in the Roman Empire?
Though many say there is no secular proof of a Census earlier than 1 AD, consider this article: 'The proof of history is in the "Chronicle of John Malalas", translated by Matthew Spinka (Univ. of Chicago Press, 1940). John Malalas was a historian of Antioch, Syria (c. 491-578 A.D.). On pages 32-33 he writes: "In the 39th year and the 10th month of his [Augustus'] reign he commanded the taking of a census of all his lands, including all that the Romans held during the consulship of Agrippa II, and of Donatus. And all the earth under the Romans was registered by Eumenes and Attalus, the Roman senators." So by using the October to October calendar Malalas used, it dates the issuance of the decree for this census to JULY, 5 B.C. There is one Suidas - another reliable authority - as well as many others, that add information about Augustus' decree, proving the census in Palestine was conducted the very next year - 4 B.C., the very time Christ was born! Therefore, it seems history does indeed have abundant evidence from both early Christians and early PAGANS to corroborate this census (see the excellent article in Unger's "Bible Dictionary" under "Chronology").'
