Starting Sunday April 1, 2012 more than 1,400 census workers will begin knocking on doors to count every person who lives in Edmonton.
Census workers will ask the following questions: how many people live in the house, their gender, the month and year of their birth, citizenship, marital status, employment status, mode of transportation used to get to work, school residency, term of residence at current location, previous residence if living in dwelling for less than a year, and whether the home is owned or rented.
For an average family of four, this takes just a few minutes.
