Stated differently, had the pandemic never happened, people of color are historically undercounted, and our wonderful nation, have become more racially and ethnically diverse over the past 10 years. While this 2010 census was accurate for the total u. S. Population, it came at the expense of

We chose three risk scenarios and use Census Bureau research to simulate 2020 counts. The most optimistic scenario in the performance of the 2010 census which came in within 100th of a of its independent total population. When we overlay that performance onto a 2020 population projection we discovered there was an undercount of the population of 0. 3 . Stated differently had the pandemic never happened and the census went as well as it did in 2010 and undercount would occur. People of color historically edundercounted in our wonderful nation would become more racially b and ethnically divere in the past 10 years. While the 2010 census was accurate for the total u. S.
