Working Paper Number RR93-05

Introduction

Sampling for the count or sample census is a scenario in which a sample of units is selected from a frame and a data collection procedure is used to obtain responses from those units in the sample.

The two sample designs consisted of one that utilized the block as a sample unit, and another that used the mail address as a sample unit.
