Description

The 2010 Census will be the most expensive census in our nation’s history, even after adjusting for inflation. The Census Bureau estimates that the life cycle cost of the 2010 Census will be from $13.7 billion to $14.5 billion. This report: (1) assesses the extent to which the Census Bureau’s 2010 Census life cycle cost estimate adheres to characteristics defined for high-quality cost estimation; (2) reports on the relationship between the estimate and the Bureau’s budget; and (3) assesses whether the Bureau’s existing policies and resources are sufficient to conduct cost estimation. Includes recommendations. Charts and tables.
