17th Census, 1950

 

POPULATION, HOUSING

& AGRICULTURE

 

 

As in 1930 and 1940, the 1950 Census was conducted according to the terms of the Fifteenth Census Act. The enumeration began on April 1, 1950, with 90 percent of the population having been enumerated by the end of the month. All but 1 percent of the population had been enumerated by the end of June 1950. The 1950 census was the first to include the publisher of these reprints!

The 1950 census encompassed the continental United States, the Territories of Alaska and Hawaii, American Samoa, the Canal Zone, Guam, Puerto Rico, the Virgin Islands of the United States, and some of the smaller islands and island groups that were United States possessions. The census also made special provisions for the enumeration of American citizens living abroad, and their dependents, including the armed forces of the United States, employees of the United States Government, and the crews of vessels in the American Merchant Marine at sea or in foreign ports.

The final reports of the 1950 Census were published in three series: Population, Housing and Agriculture.
