Ensuring a Robust and Accurate Data Quality Analysis in the 2020 Census

Asking outside experts to review our work is standard operating procedure at the U.S. Census Bureau. It underscores our commitment to quality and transparency.

In a blog earlier this month, Acting Census Bureau Director Ron Jarmin touched on the steps we are taking to assess the quality of the 2020 Census. These steps include the establishment last April of the Data Quality Executive Guidance Group (chaired by Dr. Jarmin) to ensure resources are adequately and appropriately focused on addressing and documenting data quality issues. Dr. Jarmin also mentioned that we are working with outside experts who are examining our quality metrics and reviewing our processes, procedures and decisions related to the 2020 Census.
