The law establishing the 1790 US Census had allowed 9 months for the gathering of the census information. The Census was begun on 2 August 1790. A summary of the Census Results was transmitted to Congress in written form by President Washington on 27 October 1791. Data for South Carolina was not included because collecting the information had taken longer then the 9 months allotted, and the time limit had to be extended. South Carolina ended up requiring 18 months to complete the census and their information was tipped into the Congressional Census report after it was printed.

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.
The official count in the 13 states in the 1790 U.S. Census was 3,808,096. Each slave was counted as three fifths of a person at that time.
Most Americans lived in rural areas and small towns at the time of the first census in 1790. The majority of the population was engaged in agricultural activities, and cities were relatively small compared to today.
Approximately 90% of the US population lived on farms in 1790. The majority of the population at that time was involved in agriculture due to the country's rural society and reliance on farming for sustenance and economic stability.
Florida's population in 1790 was unknown. Since it was not yet a state, no one counted. By 1830 it was 34,730.

The Federal government take its official census every ten years.
According to the first census by the new United States government, in 1790 there were 3,929,214 people in the United States. (Source: 1998 New York Times Almanac)
Actually the first United States Census wasn't taken until 1790; at the time 3,929,326 people lived in the U.S. However, it is estimated that the 1776 population was about 2.5 million people.
The first U.S. census, conducted in 1790, excluded Native Americans living on tribal lands. At that time, the federal government did not recognize them as citizens, and therefore they were not counted in the population totals. This exclusion reflected the broader context of colonization and the complex relationship between the U.S. government and Native American tribes.
