About the Census Bureau: The Constitution mandates the taking of a census every ten years as a means of determining representation in the House of Representatives and taxation. The first census in 1790 simply counted the population. The census of 1850 marked a dramatic expansion in the breadth of the data collected to include economic and other relevant social topics. Thereafter, the census steadily expanded its scope, becoming an increasingly valuable tool for contemporaries and historians in understanding American life.
