The Census Bureau historically sucks when it comes to counting Chicago (as well as other older legacy cities) for whatever reason, but boy howdy did it screw the pooch in 2020. Difficulties staffing up and counting up citizens due to the pandemic, as well as the Trump administration clearly fighting to prevent the Census from doing its job (especially in blue states) really caused the Census Bureau to drop the ball (remember how they wanted to postpone it/cancel it entirely?). The 2020 results should be marked with an asterisk so that future generations realize what a absolute clusterf*ck it was.
