Nouncensus (plural censuses)
Verbto census (third-person singular simple present censuses, present participle censusing, simple past and past participle censused)
From Wiktionary under the GNU Free Documentation License. A census is the procedure of systematically acquiring and recording information about the members of a given population. It is a regularly occurring and official count of a particular population. The term is used mostly in connection with national population and housing censuses; other common censuses include agriculture, business, and traffic. In the latter cases the elements of the 'population' are farms/businesses/etc rather than people. The United Nations defines the essential features of population and housing censuses as "individual enumeration, universality within a defined territory, simultaneity and defined periodicity", and recommends that population censuses are taken at least every 10 years. The term itself comes from Latin: during the Roman Republic the census was a list that kept track of all adult males fit for military service. The census can be contrasted with sampling in which information is obtained only from a subset of a population, sometimes as an Intercensal estimate. Census data is commonly used for research, business marketing, and planning as well as a base for sampling surveys. In some countries, census data is used to apportion electoral representation (sometimes controversially - e.g. see Utah v. Evans). From Wikipedia under the

Asked by mooned22 - Wed Aug 19 13:49:16 2009 - - 12 Answers - 0 Comments A. The Census Bureau chooses by address. Notice that all questionnaires are addressed to "current resident". The Bureau is only interested in the data from the address - they don't care who lives there. Respondents can remain anonymous if they so desire. So --- there is absolutely no count of illegal aliens. The Census Bureau assumes every respondent is in the US legally. They do track citizenship however.
