2020 Census changes may have helped states with large military populations
Fox News
U.S. Census demographers are crunching data and releasing decennial results that affect everything from local political representation to funding for public services – and in 2020 there was a key change to the way some military members were counted.
This was believed to damage areas with military bases, which might have registered an artifically diminished population count. In 2020, the count was updated to differentiate between people deployed long-term and those temporarily deployed, counting the latter as housed at the military installation from they were deployed rather than their home residence on record with the Pentagon. The previous method of counting cost North Carolina, which has a sizable military population, a congressional seat and tax dollars in 2010, according to a review conducted by The Associated Press. At the time the state had an estimated 40,000 deployed troops.
