The public is being warned to stay alert amid reports of individuals falsely claiming to be census workers.
Statchel Edwards, Director of the National Bureau of Statistics, confirmed that no census staff have been deployed ahead of the 2025 Housing and Population Census, which begins next month.
“There’s no one that’s actually doing census taking at this point in time,” he said, urging residents to be cautious of anyone claiming otherwise.
Edwards assured that once data collection begins, the public will be clearly informed. Official census workers will wear vests marked “Census 2025”, carry official IDs, and follow clearly communicated procedures.
Census Day is scheduled for 25 June.
The Bureau plans further public education campaigns to ensure a smooth process and urges residents to report any suspicious activity to the authorities.

Antigua just full of corn artist
Can’t believe people would stoop this low just to scam others. Stay alert, folks.
These scammers are taking advantage of people’s trust. Disgraceful.
No shame anymore. These criminals really go to great lengths.
Faithful national everything is not politics and we must stop it .we have to look out for one another peace my brother in every country there is always an opposition people back who they want no vexation should be there .
This news is quite alarming. We had that in Antigua before. It is very sad to think that people are impersonating census workers. One came down to our place last year. It’s terrifying how easily someone can take advantage of others’ trust. I hope everyone stays alert and spreads the word to neighbors and friends. We definitely don’t want anyone falling victim to these scams!
Ahhh boi Antigua and Barbuda. And they chose to do that with the official census just around the corner. That kind of deception could create confusion and mistrust. I really hope that the authorities are monitoring the situation closely. We need to ensure that our community is safe, especially during such important events. Stay vigilant, everyone….Itzzz a crazy world we living in
How do you turn a warning to the public to something political? Make this make a lot of sense to me Faithful National.
