I got one, and did it online. Took 5 minutes. If I was to do it over, I would have done the paper version.

With online, you can’t proceed to the next screen without answering the current one. I did some nonsense fill-in answers to get by the questions I wanted to not answer.

I figure it might be easier to just not answer a question here and there with the paper version.

I did the online version. Disappointed that they did not ask for place of birth. On the older censuses which are now available to the public, starting in 1850, that information can be very helpful to genealogists. Of course who knows what the state of genealogical research will be 72 years from now when the current census might be made available. Maybe by then it will be a hate crime to do genealogy (for causing distress to people who don't know who their father is).

I did like that they did not lump all whites into one category as usual but let you specify the particular ethnic origin you have. Normally they have all kinds of sub-categories for Asians and Hispanics but treat all non-Hispanic whites as one undifferentiated lump.

Yup - my wife noticed the same, I told her not to proceed - we'd do the paper version. They only need to know how many folks in my household.
