RE: What is a Population Census for?
Do you know that during a population census exercise, so many people in rural regions aren't counted and I wonder how accurate the census is.

Hello dear @gbenga.
Statistical studies are not totally accurate. They apply formulas that contemplate a margin of error.
The data of the people who are not counted are replaced in these formulas with "compensation factors" to cover this margin.
Thanks for commenting, dear friend.
