Marg - why can't you print your report with a search function and find your people in a specific city, county or state? You have already listed the location in the Census event - unless I am missing something here if your event is the Census (mine are - Census, date, place) and the source is Census, you should be able to find. Do you not use the event or fact as the Census?
