The correct answer is D. The Census collects data on demographics, socio-economic indicators, housing and amenities.
- Demographics are the characteristics of a population, such as age, sex, race, ethnicity, and household size.
- Socio-economic indicators are measures of a population’s economic and social well-being, such as income, poverty, and education.
- Housing and amenities are the types of housing and services available to a population, such as the number of housing units, the quality of housing, and the availability of public services.
The Census Bureau is the government agency responsible for collecting data on the population of the United States. The Census Bureau conducts a census every ten years, and collects data on a variety of topics, including demographics, housing, and the economy. The data collected by the Census Bureau is used to apportion seats in the U.S. House of Representatives, to distribute federal funds, and to plan for the future.
