Scotland’s census - our once-a-decade count of the population – is now open and many of us will have had a letter through the door over the past couple of days asking us to take part.
The census, which takes place every ten years, is the official count of every person in the country and collects information about where you stay and the people who stay there.
Scotland's census has been around since 1801, except 1941 - The 2021 census in Scotland was moved to 2022 due to the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic.
