Subject Guide for Decennial Census Publications
See also: Census Publications
This page lists Decennial Census publications owned by the SDSU library. All titles are located in Reference/US, except where noted.
The Decennial Census has been taken every ten years since 1790. Early censuses combined all subject areas, but after 1900 the Decennial Census began to be divided into separate publications based on subject (e.g. Census of Agriculture). When there is such a division, this list focuses on the Censuses of Population and Housing. For other censuses see the listing of Census Publications.
