Actually a census worker can request a police escort to enable them to knock on your door.

"Actually," huh?

A police escort?

Do they get lights and sirens, the whole shebang? God I hope so!

Based on what I was told in training 10 years ago. Never had to do it.

We were told to ignore no trespassing signs.

Funny.

They never seem to ‘push’ us hillbillies.

I haven’t seen a census worker in decades.

[the first and only one, actually]

Ironically, I was a tester/hirer for the ‘80 census and when the enumerators would get back in, they’d always come to me and ask “WTF is WRONG with your people?!”

I always said “They don’t like outlanders askin’ nosy questions.”

Secretly, I laughed at their tales of terror involving ‘yard dogs’ and ‘shotguns’.

Then, years later, one pesky lady came around to “enumerate” *me*.

[ I was sitting on the old original ramshackle front porch, cleaning a squirrel rifle with chickens grazing in the yard and 2 Dobes lying on either side of me]

She stayed on the outside of the fence and kept BSing me until I told her I’d hired and fired people like her and knew what she could and couldn’t legally do or ask.

So she gave up and went away.

Far as I know, they’ve only managed to get my name and hubby’s name.

We don’t even get forms anymore.
