Appreciate the inside insight into the workings of the census... I often wondered how they could expect to come up with accurate numbers.

For example, our 33-year old son still lives "here," based on his diver's license and voter registration... because his car (older) doesn't have to pass emissions testing in this county. But he actually lives in Seattle, but hsi address doesn't actually exist because his "landlord" runs an only pseudo-legal "boarding house," meaning it's a house that's divided into apartments, but because of the cost toget it zoned "multi-family" it's still listed as a house... except it has multiple permanent paying guests.

So if a census taker came to son's front door (he has his own) he's be counted as a person living there, again.

Meanwhile, I replied to the 2020 Census by taking an online questionnaire.
