Quality Assurance Operation Quality Assurance Operation

The U.S. Census Bureau is committed to producing a complete and accurate count of the population. As we begin to wrap up the non-response follow-up phase, the 2010 Census remains not only on schedule, but also significantly under budget. However, the 2010 Census is not over yet. In addition to systematic quality checks of all census takers’ work over the last several months, this summer marks the peak of our efforts to ensure the data we collect are as complete and accurate as possible. While quality assurance is an on-going part of the 2010 Census, three major operations occur this summer, which means some households will be called or visited again by a census worker.

  • The Census Bureau systematically reinterviews five percent of all the households visited by census takers to confirm that every one of our 565,000 census takers followed our training and did their jobs correctly.
  • Currently, we’re calling about 7.5 million households that have responded to the census to clarify any confusion about who should be counted at that address. We want to make sure we are not double-counting people or leaving people out.
  • With one of the highest vacancy rates in recent years, we’ll visit households that we believe are vacant to double-check that we are not missing anyone.
  • We will also verify the location of addresses provided on Be Counted forms or telephone interviews that are not already on our address list, to ensure we’re counting the residents in the correct location.
  • If yours is one of the small percentage of homes re-interviewed, called or visited this summer during our quality assurance operations, please, take a few minutes with the census taker and help us ensure the quality of the 2010 Census.
