Just as retailers are staffing up to handle a glut of shoppers this holiday season, so too is the U.S. Census Bureau.

Over the next several months, the agency will hire 5,000 people to work at its offices in San Francisco and Oakland — part of a larger hiring spree intended to bring on 500,000 census takers and office workers across the country ahead of the 2020 census this spring.
