This volume incorporates the advance series of family bulletins. The subjects presented include tenure of home, value or monthly rental of nonfarm homes, dwellings by class, and families classified according to size, number of children, number of gainful workers, number of lodgers, and age of head.
Other tables classify homemakers according to employment status, and families according to whether or not they have a radio set. A United States summary is also included.
Census statistics date back to 1790 and reflect the growth and change of the United States. Past census reports contain some terms that today’s readers may consider obsolete and inappropriate. As part of our goal to be open and transparent with the public, we are improving access to all Census Bureau original publications and statistics, which serve as a guide to the nation's history.
