Census Coverage Survey
The Census Coverage Survey is a really important part of Scotland’s Census. It is a separate survey that we will run from June 2022. It has an vital role in helping us to make sure that we produce high quality census outputs.
It covers around 53,000 Scottish households across Scotland. As in the rest of the UK, the survey was run in Scotland after the 2001 and 2011 censuses. It was also run in the rest of the UK after their 2021 censuses. It is an established and important part of Scotland’s Census.
Even if you have completed the census, you may still be asked to take part in the Census Coverage Survey. By doing so, you are helping improve the quality of the census.
