Abstract:
|
The 2010 Census is nearly indescribable---an operation that is both national in its scope, but intensely local in its execution. Thousands of operations and activities must be integrated over the course of a few years and throughout the United States. This paper describes the key operations comprising the 2010 Census, from the recently completely address canvassing operation to the final dissemination of census products. The paper also includes discussion on progress on and challenges facing the operations, as well as what risk mitigation and contingencies plans are in place to address the challenges.
