HAPPENING TOMORROW: Census Bureau to Release 2020 Post-Enumeration Survey Results for 50 States and D.C.

Census Bureau to Release 2020 Post-Enumeration Survey Results for 50 States and DC

MAY 18, 2022 – Tomorrow, Thursday, May 19, the U.S. Census Bureau will release the results from the 2020 Post-Enumeration Survey (PES) for the 50 states and District of Columbia.  

A webinar on “Understanding the Count: A Discussion on the Latest 2020 Post-Enumeration Survey Results” will be held Thursday at 10 a.m. to highlight the results.  

This release includes: 

  • Coverage estimates for states: Undercount and overcount rates and components of coverage by state and the District of Columbia (a state equivalent). 
  • National components of coverage: Correct or erroneous enumerations and whole-person imputations by census operation. This includes internet response mode and nonresponse follow-up by type of enumeration: by a householder, a proxy respondent, and administrative record enumeration.  

Results will not be broken down by demographic characteristics or geographic areas within the state given the sample size for the PES and the assumptions required to make substate geographic estimates. 

The coverage measurement results provide one way of analyzing the quality of the 2020 Census.
