The 1892 New York State Census is both very important census due to the lack of a 1890 US Federal Census which has been destroyed in a fire, but it is also seriously lacking in information.  As you can see in the image, there is no address which was commonplace in census reports by this time, but this census also does not even mention where one household begins and the other one ends, and does not mention the relationship between family members.
