I was a census taker during the 2000 Census. I went to the addresses of people who hadn't answered during the mail-in phase, knocked on their doors, asked them the questions and filled out a form for them. I did it in my neighborhood, so it was really kind of fun getting to know people, and it paid well for a part-time job.
I always think about it when Census-taking time comes around, but no way would I do it this year with coronavirus.
