A survey is used more often than a census because a census requires everybody to respond, while a survey only needs a few people. This means a survey is advantageous for many reasons:
A census is more preferable than a survey when complete data on a population is required for accuracy and thoroughness, such as in governmental population counts or resource allocation. It eliminates sampling error and provides a comprehensive overview, making it ideal for small populations or when precise demographic information is critical. Additionally, a census is beneficial when changes in population characteristics need to be tracked over time.
its better because we often don't have to survey a large population, so a sample is quicker, easier, requires few ressources, little time and can be more accurate if a person is not there to answer it because a sample could represent that person.
The rising amount of multiracial people caused the census bureau to allow this in order to better understand the population.
Surveys are quick and census is more accurate.
The answer will depend on what period of time they make 250k over. It also depends on what units you use for 250k - pennies?
becuase it is more accurate.
A sample survey may be preferable than a census because it can be more comprehensive. While its research only involves a subset, it is typically more accurate.
According to census of 2007, there were 3,79,042 Christians. I dont think they have done any survey after this. But it is rapidly growing. So maybe by now its around 5 lakhs or more.
The census surveys all members of the population. If the objective of the survey is to find representative values of certain attributes, say how much does the average fisherman make in Alaska, then certainly a survey that includes all fisherman should be more accurate. If all members of the population are surveyed, then the resultant summary values would be considered parameters rather than statistics. For example:no statistical inference is made if I state there are 1,000 fisherman in Alaska, and a tally of all of them, shows their average income is $20,000. I can say that a census should be more accurate than a sample survey, provided all other factors are the same and precautions are taken to obtain reliable data. A census conducted in a biased manner will not provide accurate parameters.

Researchers define a "population" which consists of elements with defined characteristics. Example: All the matriculating students at Providence College. If the researcher studies the entire population as defined above, it is called a "census". If, on the other hand, the researcher takes a subset of the population, a sample, and studies it it will be a sample survey (or study in more general terms.)

In the United States, the government conducts a census every ten years, with the most recent one occurring in 2020. This decennial census aims to count every resident in the country and gather demographic information. Additionally, the Census Bureau conducts various surveys, such as the American Community Survey, annually to collect more detailed data between the census years. Other countries may have different schedules and methods for conducting their censuses.
Federal census is taken every 10 years. Some regional census polls are taken more often, but the law is for every 10 years.
It is more accurate, unbiased and includes every item in the population, whereas sampling may be biased, and sampling is not totally representative.
A sample is a portion and a census measures absolutely everyone in the whole country. A representative sample measures a small number of people who fit a particular category of people: surveying 200 white male smokers between 20 and 40 who have had surgery for throat cancer (out of a total number of say 35,000 men who fit that profile).
This is a survey question. I think this is answerable with "Television, Newspaper, etc." And i dont think you can find more answers on the net. Its a survey, no one shares there answer on a web.
