The Impact of Household Surveys on 2020 Census Self-Response

Jonathan Eggleston

Working Papers from U.S. Census Bureau, Center for Economic Studies

Abstract: Households who were sampled in 2019 for the American Community Survey (ACS) had lower self-response rates to the 2020 Census. The magnitude varied from -1.5 percentage point for household sampled in January 2019 to -15.1 percent point for households sampled in December 2019. Similar effects are found for the Current Population Survey (CPS) as well.
