Please join us as we celebrate the Census Bureau's Centennial.
The United States Congress created the permanent Census office in 1902, which became the Bureau of the Census a year later in the new Department of Commerce and Labor.
It stayed in the Department of Commerce when Labor split off as a separate agency in 1913.
