Census in Walton County

Whose decision to skip south of the bay? There are a fair number of us down here who would like to be counted, but nobody at Census wants to bother?

They came by my place yesterday. I and my wife are the only ones who live here permanently and they managed to find us.
 
We too were visited by a nice lady from the Census...way up here in the woods. Wife said it took a couple of minutes and all was done. Then she got my daughter across the street, and the neighbors next door. Seems to be going well from my perspective.
 
I hadn't thought about the census at our beach house. We've returned the forms at our two other residences in Midtown Atlanta and in SoSoATL. We don't have a mailbox in SoWal, and we stopped paying for a P.O. box at the SRB post office because we never got mail there.

Would a form have been on the front door when the renters arrived in March? Hubby spent some time at the beach recently and left on Monday, but there was no census form on the door when he was there. What do we do?
 
If a Census worker came to your door and got no answer a notice of visit form giving a telephone number to contact would have been left.

Several people were wondering if there is a place to go fill out the form? I don't know the answer. I do know that in other states the Bureau of the Census has set up "Be Counted" sites where you can go to fill out a survey. I don't know if Walton County has such a site or not. On Monday I'll call Pensacola and find out. Once I find out I'll post their answer. For anyone who may want to find out for themselves the number is 850-288-7330.

Not to comment on the other complaints, but the census person who came to my house didn't ask to come in and it only took a couple of minutes at the door to answer the questions. Who lives at the address, our relationship, if it's a full-time or part-time residence, our ages, birthdates and race.

A census worker should never ask to come in your home. They are told not to, ever.
 
Got counted today, they didn't ask to come in, and it only took about five minutes. So I guess that's it, we'll talk about it in another 10 years.
 
Got my census questionaire today

Rather personal :cool:
