I just use the default Census event

Description - <year> US Federal Census Population Schedule
Date  - date of census
Location - city, county and state as shown on census


I wouldn't want to deal with that many different Census Event
Definitions nor take the time to create new ones.

I can always search on Event Description if I want to find the individuals
with that specific census.

Pretty much the same for notes - following Geoff's example in the Sample
file.
