And Yet another census story

[AFA1CY]

Knock on the door the other day. I can see that the gentleman standing there has a census ID. Open door and he asks me about the house next door. (House next door has been vacant for the last two+ years.) He asked me if there was anyone living there on April 1st and I tell him no. He thanks me and leaves.


Kinda boring, don't you think?

The Census has been bothering both of my nieghbors. I just let him know that they were both new to the neighborhood and I thought, but wasn't sure that they had moved in after April 1st 2010. I told him I could be mistaken, because of my TBI, but I was pretty sure. He asked me to sign their forms swearing to the fact, which I wouldn't. Asked for my phone number to which I told him we didn't have a home phone.

I had one ring my doorbell last week. I opened it not sure what to expect since the SO filled out everything when we sent it in. Turns out he wanted to know about an apartment upstairs. I just told him i didn't know who they were. He wanted to keep asking but I had no information. I'm not really sure whether I would have said anything had I known. I'd probably just have said the same thing I said anyways even if I did know my neighbors.

I would hope so. reverse the situation. How would you like a neighbor giving out information about you that you might not want disseminated?

I filled out the Census, but wouldn't provide information on anyone else.

Who am I to screw with someone's tin foil hatted protest? If they want .gov to know the info, they'll tell them.

Recent visit from the mormons, but no census workers yet. My nosy neighbor probably gave out all my info, anyway.
