At the last Census we were at the VIP RV Park in SLC. I was at the library when the lady came to count us. We were full-timers then so it didn't matter to us where we were counted. I think Fred would have tracked her down just to be sure we were counted. She gave him the full version question form too.
We filled out this latest one in AZ. Nothing to it. Names, addresses and birth dates. Lots less information required than previous census forms. We've been through 7 of them, and have yet to have anything come back at us to tell us Big Brother has us in his clutches. They have already acquired more information on us through the MVD and VA than any census bureau does. Those that are fearful the govt. will know too much about them are way too insecure. They already have it by many other means.
There are other reasons, besides allotting our congressional districts by the Census count. They are a means of tracking agricultural problems, and disappearing farm lands, city growth, or lack thereof, and lots of other stuff. Some years back they wanted to know where you were born; where your parents were born; if you had any toilets in the house, and how many; if you owned a tractor or a car, if you owned your own home, how many bedrooms you had, and way back when, how many slaves you owned. I'm a genealogist, and you can't believe how important the Census is to those trying to find elusive relatives several generations back. It is a boon for trying to break down brick walls we can run into in trying to find our roots. However, nothing is released to the public for 70 years, so if you're hiding from relatives today, they can just wait 70 years until your dead, and then find out where you were 70 years ago..... ;D
So, if for any other reason you haven't filled it out yet, please do so, so future genealogists will be able to find where you once lived......
