Census Bureau Hiring for Independent Survey That Measures Quality of 2020 Census

Post-Enumeration Survey Estimates Number of People and Housing Units Missed in Census

FEB. 11, 2021 – The U.S. Census Bureau is currently hiring temporary workers to conduct the "person follow-up" phase of the Post-Enumeration Survey (PES) beginning in June.

The PES is an independent survey that helps measure the accuracy of the decennial census by estimating how many people and housing units were missed or erroneously counted in the census, including those counted more than once. During person follow-up, census takers will return to select housing units previously interviewed to confirm our records.
