My wife is currently out of work, so I’m going to recommend she check with the census folks about job availability in our area.
It is not nearly so lucrative for a hustler now as it was in 1990. It has all been redesigned to compensate for the retirees and students who spend 60 seconds carefully drawing in a name and who cannot organize their work to use time efficiently. There are no bonuses any more. I did it again in 2000 but quit after a short time.
The worker came to our house. It was a very short and simple interview. She only asked if our address was correct and if we had any other mailing address.
I worked the last census, and my buddy who was great and worked the 1990, 2000 & 2010 censuses didn't believe me when I told him to fill out the online application.
I got hired again, and he didn't. Tried to get him in anyway after I got hired, and was told that a supervisor got fired for trying to get someone they knew hired that way.
