Census Bureau App Leads Digital Transformation
From the time the U.S. Census Bureau became a permanent agency in 1902, it has been known as “the nation’s fact finder.” At the time, and for many decades thereafter, it released the results of its censuses and surveys in bulky paper volumes, which required users to make a trip to a library to access the findings. How far we’ve come! Today, our agency truly enters the 21st century with the release of its first-ever mobile app, sending economic data, updates and the schedule of upcoming statistical releases directly to your tablets and smartphones.
