Decennial Census Geographic Partnership Programs
Decennial Census Geographic Partnership Programs
Each decade, prior to the decennial Census, the Census Bureau conducts a series of geographic partnership programs to ensure our address lists are up to date. The bureau does this to ensure complete coverage of all housing units and to help define statistical geographic boundaries to provide meaningful data from the Census. The tabs below provide information about which programs were performed for that decade.
The programs listed below helped us prepare for a successful 2020 Census.
Local Update of Census Addresses (LUCA) Operation
LUCA is the only opportunity offered to tribal, state, and local governments to review and comment on the residential address list for their jurisdiction.
New Construction Program
The New Construction program helps ensure that the U.S. Census Bureau's address list is as complete and accurate as possible on Census Day.
Participant Statistical Areas Program (PSAP)
Enables invited participants to review and verify selected statistical area boundaries for Census data tabulation following specific guidelines and criteria.
