A census block is the smallest geographic unit used by the United States Census Bureau for tabulation of 100 percent data data collected from all houses, rather than a sample of houses . Several blocks make up census block group block groups , which again make up census tract s. There are on average about 39 blocks per block group, but there are variations. Blocks typically have a four digit number where the first number indicates which block group the block is in, for example Block 3019 would be in block group 3. The number of blocks in the United States including Puerto Rico is about 8,200,000. Blocks are typically bounded by streets, roads or creeks. In cities, a census block may correspond to a city block , but in rural areas where, roads are fewer, blocks may be limited by other features. The population of a census block varies greatly. There are about 2,700,000 blocks with a population of 0, while a block that is entirely occupied by an apartment complex might have several hundred inhabitants. Census blocks covering the entire country were introduced with the United States Census, 1990 1990 census . Prior to this, back to the United States Census, 1940 1940 census , only select areas were divided into blocks. References U.S. Census Bureau.

Census taking in Denmark started in its modern form in 1769, and the next two censuses were taken in 1787 and 1801. Problems that arose during the implementation and tabulation of the first census demonstrate the difficulties in establishing an efficient administration of population statistics from scratch. By trial and error during the course of the first three censuses, the administration learned how to carry out and tabulate a census so that by 1801 census taking had reached a form that could be used for the rest of the 19th century with only minor changes and additions.
