The 2020 census may still have a hefty price tag despite efforts by the Commerce Department to cut costs, a new report shows.

At a cost of $94 per household, the entire 2010 census cost the government nearly $13 billion to complete. The high price, along with the 2013 sequester, prompted the Census Bureau to attempt to lower the price per household for the upcoming 2020 census before it balloons to $148 per household.
