Why the census?

The general population census is a procedure in which all countries regularly participate. The purpose is to determine the number of inhabitants in each city, to know the demographics of the population according to age, profession, kind of activity, from the analysis of migrations, the composition and make-up of buildings and dwellings, etc. This information will be invaluable to the study of all demographic, economic and social problems at the national, regional, or local level.

Required by the mandate from April 28th, 1981 (Journal Official from April 30th, 1981), the general census from 1982, the 31st since 1801 is obligatory for all people residing in France.

The law on the privacy of statistics guarantees that the individual information appearing on the questionnaires of the census will be used only for statistical ends. These questionnaires belong to the Institute of Statistics and Economic Studies (I.N.S.E.E.). It is forbidden to make copies under penalty of the sanctions laid out in article 44 of mandate 78-17 from January 6th, 1978 (see the explanatory notice).

How to fill out forms

You will first fill out the present form by beginning with pages 2 and 3 (list of people living in the dwelling), then by continuing on page 4 (composition and make-up of the dwelling). Then, for each of the people recorded in list A on page 2, you will fill out an individual form (form number 2).

Before answering a question, read the instructions appearing on the forms. When these instructions are not sufficient in order to answer a particular situation, refer to the explicative note. In case of difficulty, ask the census agent.

By following these recommendations and by following the instructions which will be provided for you by the census agent, you will facilitate the work of the I.N.S.E.E. who thanks you.
