2010 Census data now available…
And the big winner is Texas. Ohio and New York are the biggest losers…Are the many critiques from MyTwoCensus of the counting process in NYC now being proven valid?

I checked my town and all it has is a “2009 population estimate.” I guess the details are not out yet.

Yeah they’re redoing the factfinder. Should be up next month.

NY did not lose two seats because of poor counting. Have you run the pop counts through an apportionment calculator?
NY needed 107,000+ more population not to lose its second seat.

Interesting article from the Gotham Gazette about the possibility of an undercount in places like New York City.

I wonder if there are undercounts in places like Arizona and California, where immigrants—both legal and illegal—may have been afraid to discuss residents with enumerators.
