Sorry Damon, I'll take the US Census Bureau's estimates over anyone's personal experiences any day.

I guess you have never worked for the census bureau then. []

After spending the last 6 weeks canvassing East Hawaii and knowing of all the SNAFU's that we went through in the process of doing it... The Census Bureau is a really messed up place right now.

Our supervisor even told us they lost some East Hawaii Data at one point this year.

There are other people who worked for the census bureau that also post on Punaweb and I'm sure they can verify how Screwed up some of the things that we were put through and how much data is not even really calculated.

They train us to only take the address of a location if it's listed and to move on to the next address.

How many of you folks have an address listed on your house... BUT YOU ACTUALLY PICK UP THE MAIL AT THE Post Office.

You tell me after the 2010 census has taken place if you actually received something at the address that the Census Bureau has on record! [V]

This years census was so built upon people rushing through jobs so that superiors above them could get bonuses that the canvassing across the Nation has been considered very shabby to say the least.

Trust the Census count... Laugh of the Day.

During the first week of training I asked during our training how accurate the Census is in our area... The response... about 60%.

Who you gonna believe... Me... a former employee that was doing the census canvassing...

Or those getting big bucks in Washington DC?
