Hi aurimasrok,
Thank you for your question.
According to the last dicennial census in 2000, the population of the
United States of America was 281,421,906. The US Census is taken
every 10 years - although forms are sent out monthly to keep the data
updated.
Every month 60,000 to 65,000 addresses are selected and a shortr form
is sent out to keep the information current because so many people are
transient. They get married, divorced, have gone back to school,
change jobs, etc.
In fact, people are so transient - they will fill out and send back
the short form, and before the Census Bureau has received it, many
will have moved!
Every 5 years the long form is sent out to every address.
