Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In response to a congressional request, GAO assisted Congress in its oversight of the Census Bureau's 1990 decennial census planning efforts by monitoring the Bureau's 1986 pretest in Los Angeles, California, and Meridian, Mississippi. GAO found that: (1) the Bureau completed the pretest on schedule; (2) centralized recruitment and daily management reports ensured sufficient staffing and timely completion of the follow-up operations; (3) unclear contract specifications for printing vendors contributed to questionnaire delivery mix-ups; (4) a lack of coordination with the U.S. Postal Service resulted in presorting problems in Los Angeles; (5) limited testing of software programs for some activities resulted in technical difficulties, requiring revised keying procedures and reliance on manual reports; (6) no evaluations of the 1986 office configurations or data capture technologies were available for the Bureau's decisions to establish 10 to 14 processing offices and to use a modified sensing device for input to computer technology; (7) although the Bureau budgeted $18.1 million for the 1986 pretest, it did not collect complete cost and productivity data from the test to project 1990 costs; and (8) the Bureau charged some direct costs from the test to 1990 projects or indirect cost accounts, resulting in underreporting of 1986 costs. GAO believes that: (1) the Bureau could do more to improve available information for the 1990 census; and (2) the Bureau needs to identify and resolve some of the seemingly minor problems experienced during the pretest, which could present major problems on a nationwide scale in 1990.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The paper presents the initial work accomplished in the development of a cost model for the 1990 decennial census and explains how the model will be used to simulate alternatives to the 1990 census. The structure of the model and derivation of key variables are discussed. Some modelling results which focus on the sensitivity of key variables are shown. The work on the value of benefits of decennial census data is in a less developed conceptual stage. The paper will review the goals, assumptions, problems and possibilities related to the valuation of census data. It concludes with some methods for measuring the value of census data.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. census, conducted every 10 years since 1790, faces dramatic new challenges as the country begins its third century. Critics of the 1990 census cited problems of increasingly high costs, continued racial differences in counting the population, and declining public confidence. This volume provides a major review of the traditional U.S. census. Starting from the most basic questions of how data are used and whether they are needed, the volume examines the data that future censuses should provide. It evaluates several radical proposals that have been made for changing the census, as well as other proposals for redesigning the year 2000 census. The book also considers in detail the much-criticized long form, the role of race and ethnic data, and the need for and ways to obtain small-area data between censuses.
