Nationwide census starts today
Today, Thursday, the 2026 General Population and Housing Census officially began. The process includes a self-enumeration phase conducted electronically during the first three days of October, followed by a fieldwork phase starting on October 4 and continuing until the end of the month. Approximately 12,000 enumerators from the Department of Statistics, along with teachers and employees from various institutions, are participating in the census to collect up-to-date and comprehensive data on all residents and housing in the kingdom. The department employs a modern digital system for data collection and emphasizes the confidentiality of the information, calling on citizens and residents to cooperate and verify the identities of the field enumerators to facilitate the census process. The goal is to support planning and improve services in sectors such as education, health, housing, transportation, and infrastructure.
