A number of General Tables are presented. The results of a modern census have been accurately defined as a national account of stock. Early censuses were merely counts of inhabitants; additional facts relating to population were next secured; and the most recent step in census taking especially in the United States has been to include practically all lines of human activity. The modern census is thus the result of evolution. The United States census plural censuses or census is a census that is legally mandated by the Constitution of the United States. It takes place every ten years. The first census after the American Revolution was taken in 1790 under Secretary of State Thomas Jefferson. There have been 23 federal censuses since that time. The census includes Territories of the United States. The United States Census Bureau is responsible for conducting the census. The most recent national census took place in 2020; the next census is scheduled for 2030. Since 2013 the Census Bureau began discussions on using technology to aid data collection starting with the 2020 census. In 2020 every household received an invitation to complete the census over the Internet by phone or by paper questionnaire. For years between the decennial censuses the Census Bureau issues estimates made using surveys and statistical models in particular the Population Estimates Program and American Community Survey.
