Population Census

A Population Census is a systematic process in which a government collects data about its inhabitants. It typically occurs every ten years and aims to count every person living in the country. The census gathers information on various aspects, such as age, gender, ethnicity, and housing. This data is crucial for government planning and resource allocation, helping to determine how services like schools, hospitals, and infrastructure are distributed. Accurate census information is essential for understanding demographic trends and making informed decisions that affect communities and economies.
