Where Census Workers Fear To Tread

Some areas are ramping up efforts ahead of the census count this year, citing being undercounted in previous censuses. Well, there might be a reason for that.
On Wednesday, the county’s census committee announced three caravans to make sure residents in low-income neighborhoods are counted. The caravans – a parade of about 30 cars led by police – will ride through three sections of the county on March 13, 20 and 27 to let residents know about the census, Stokes said.
If you need a police escort just to travel the streets that just might explain why some people weren't counted.

I guess those snazzy census commercials are just another waste of money, huh?

Just saying.
