Census Bureau Announces Timeline for Additional 2020 Census Operational Quality Metrics

The following press release was published by the U.S. Department of Census Bureau on Aug. 5, 2021. It is reproduced in full below.

- The U.S. Census Bureau will release the next two rounds of 2020 Census operational quality metrics in August. On Aug. 18, the Census Bureau will provide summary county- and tract-level information by state for a limited set of previously released operational quality metrics. The metrics will not be available for individual counties or tracts, but rather they provide the average rates (mean), median and standard deviations for the state’s counties and tracts, respectively.

On Aug. 25, the Census Bureau will provide item nonresponse rates for the population count, age or date of birth, race, and Hispanic origin questions. These rates will be available for the nation, 50 states, the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico. The Census Bureau will discuss each release in blog posts.
