Marshals) for the 1790 census, whereas recent censuses have employed half a million or more enumerators plus postal service carriers; the office force for the census has also increased over time, as has the volume of data collected and produced for public use. By 1900, the real dollar per person cost of the census had increased from 11 cents to $3 in 1999 dollars. For the 1900–1960 period, however, despite continued population growth, costs remained in the range of $3–4 most of the time. Exceptions occurred for the 1920 census, which cost about 30 percent less than the average, and the 1940 census, which cost about 60 percent more than the average (Anderson, 2000:384—estimates are not available per housing unit).
Marshals for the 1880 census. 3 The content of the census questionnaire expanded greatly from a few items in the first censuses to dozens of items in censuses of the late 19th century; in 1940, a census of housing was added to the census of population. 4 The 1940 census was an outlier in the first half of the 20th century with regard to costs. 1).
