Hello Reddit! We are Claire Kluskens and Sharon Tosi Lacey, subject matter experts in genealogy and Census Bureau history, and we're excited to join today's AMA. We're here to answer your questions about the 1950 Census records, including how you can use them in your research, how we conducted the 1950 Census, and what the census tells us about America in 1950.

We'll begin answering questions at 3 pm ET.

On April 1, the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) released population records from the 1950 Census to the public after a mandatory 72 years of confidentiality.

The 1950 Census records release highlights the importance of responding to Census Bureau surveys and censuses. Users are able to explore the data for free at 1950census.archives.gov. These records provide genealogists, historians, researchers, and the public an opportunity to research family and community histories alongside our nation's history.
