Census in Peru


A census in Peru is an enumeration of the Peruvian population made by the Peru government. The full name of a census in Spanish is like X Censo de Población y V de Vivienda in which X en V are Roman numerals for the tenth population census and fifth household census respectively. The first five times the census was made, only population data was included. From the sixth census onwards, also household data is included.
