Today is Census day - a nationwide headcount of everyone in New Zealand and where they are living or staying.

It鈥檚 an important five-yearly data collection event that provides a snapshot of our nation at a point in time, including providing detailed information about New Zealand鈥檚 small communities.

NZ Herald Head of 九一星空无限room Data Chris Knox joins Nick Mills to explain its importance.
