update, now that I think of it, in 2010 I was married and my husband at the time would have been the head of household and any such letter from the census would have been addressed to him.
In 2020 my circumstances were extremely vagrant so that’s probably how I slipped through the cracks that year.
Vagrancy matters! The only reason I was counted in 2020 was because I broke my neck and spent about the first half of the year staying at a friend’s house. The address I had wasn’t legit so nothing like that would have been mailed to me.
Possibly. I haven’t the foggiest idea of what determines where the forms get mailed. I’ve always assumed the list was compiled from whatever records the government has on people: tax filings, driver’s licenses, etc. I only know I got both of mine in the mail.
