Hispanics new to U.S. more likely to return census forms than those who are native born, survey shows

Recent Hispanic immigrants are more likely to return their census questionnaires than Hispanics born in the United States, according to a new study that suggests a census campaign targeting Spanish speakers has been wildly successful.
