Has there been a change in the long-form sampling rate?
I have two residences (an inner-city condo, and a rural house), and managed to
get the long form at BOTH. Fortunately, I'm told I should only fill out one...

Did anyone ever figure out from the '90 Census the
difference in
non-response rates between short-form and long-form households? I'm getting
an earful from friends and relatives right now who got the long form. I'm
starting to understand better the rationale for getting away from the long
form toward the ACS (if in fact this was part of the rationale).
