Heya #edpolicy or #gis or #census folks... 🚨

I'd love to be able to sneak a #political #policy questionnaire into the next #Australian #Census to get a real gauge on where people fall on the political spectrum. I suspect it would look a lot different to how people vote at #elections […]

Why rural hospitals close What makes small town healthcare different

🔢 One in five people in the U.S. lives in #rural areas, according to the U.S. #Census. #Rural residents are #older on average, have worse health #outcomes and less access to #health #care — and their #hospitals are more likely to close.

Do I know anyone with a current Ancestry account who can look up a record from the 1911 census for me? Pretty please? #genealogy #census #ancestry

I’m losing patience by the day… 😅🙃

Entries from the handwritten 1892 New York State census. Shown are the listings for John E. Gillett, male, 28, whose occupation is listed as "tally man." Below is his wife, Lillie V. Gillett, female, 24. She is not a tally man.

Apparently, in the 1892 New York State census, "tally man" was a job.

Will Wisconsin maintain 8 congressional districts? | Gilbert If Wisconsin loses a congressional seat after the next Census, it could have an impact on the state's clout in Congress and in presidential elections.

🚨 If Wisconsin’s population growth lags, we could lose a congressional seat after 2030—less representation, less clout, and a redistricting cage match. We can’t “oops” our way into 7 districts. #Wisconsin #WIpolitics #Redistricting #Gerrymandering #Congress #Census #Elections
