Perilous time for the 2020 census. Troubling, there were reports indicating career officials at the Census Bureau warned the trump about significant problems that will delay the delivery of census data to late january or early february. After these reports became public, the director of the census, dr. Steven billingham, issued a Public Statement confirming problems were found, but provided no details.

These are problems yet to be found reveal the consequences and risks.

We chose three risk scenarios and used Census Bureau research to simulate 2020 counts. The most optimistic scenario mimicked the performance of the 2010 census, which came in 0001 of population estimate.

To help illustrate the challenges took 2020 census accuracy i start with Research Conducted by diana elliott, steve and i to explore it 2020 census outcomes. This was precovid. 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 ....
