Interestingly, if you click on any of the links on the "example" page [1], it seems to return results, even without an API key. Conveniently, it strips off the url param "YOUR_API_KEY_HERE" for you. Not sure what to make of the results, though. [1] https://api.census.gov/data/2010/sf1/examples.html

One reason to get an API key is that they use the associated email to send out (very low volume) messages about API "news".
