Limitations of the American Community Survey The American Community Survey is conducted by the US Census Bureau every year. However, it is a survey that uses a sampling technique as opposed to the Census that enumerates everyone every 10 years. The American Community Survey does not define the data collection categories in the same way that the Census does. For instance when the Census uses the term "total population." it includes people living in households and group quarters. The American Community Survey includes only those who live in households. Before using the data in the American Community Survey, please check the following web site of the Missouri Census Data Center for "Ten Things to know about the American Community Survey:"
