Census workers can enter your apartment in your absence



This article will tick you off if you are a renter or an ethical landlord.

Thousands of census workers, including many temporary employees, are fanning out across America to gather information on the citizenry. This is a process that takes place not only every decade in order to complete the constitutionally-mandated census; but also as part of the continuing “American Community Survey” conducted by the Census Bureau on a regular basis year in and year out.

What many Americans don’t realize, is that census workers — from the head of the Bureau and the Secretary of Commerce (its parent agency) down to the lowliest and newest Census employee — are empowered under federal law to actually demand access to any apartment or any other type of home or room that is rented out, in order to count persons in the abode and for “the collection of statistics.” If the landlord of such apartment or other leased premises refuses to grant the government worker access to your living quarters, whether you are present or not, the landlord can be fined $500.00.

That’s right — not only can citizens be fined if they fail to answer the increasingly intrusive questions asked of them by the federal government under the guise of simply counting the number of people in the country; but a landlord must give them access to your apartment whether you’re there or not, in order to gather whatever “statistics” the law permits.

In fact, some census workers apparently are going even further and demanding — and receiving — private cell phone numbers from landlords in order to call tenants and obtain information from them. Isn’t it great to live in a “free” country?

I had a census person call on the phone. Took 3 minutes. Very polite and not insisting I answer any question I did not want to.

This is pretty much the conversation I remember.

How many people at this address? 4
Any live anywhere else? No
Race? NOYB
Own or Rent? Own, opps got me on that one.
Names of people living at this address? NOYB
Can I give your phone # to the Census Bureau? Apparently they already have it.

Thank you good bye. See ya.
