-== Question ==
-Has anyone ever seen previous years census figures changed on the United States Census site? I just saw a 2013 figure changed when the 2014 came out. That looks fishy to me, as anyone have ever seen it before?  [[User:Linda Rider|Linda Rider]] ([[User talk:Linda Rider|talk]]) 05:15, 25 May 2015 (UTC)
