For some reason my response to Elizabeth did not come through the list
so I'll try again. And hopefully, with better articulation.
Highlight the 1900 census. Then click Show List. Then tag that list.
Then do a search for untagged on that tag number and tag that list with
a different tag number.
Then do a Search for that tag number combined with people born before
1900 AND died after 1900. ie people living in 1900.
OR
Highlight all census records and repeat as above, combining with a
Search for people born between 1790 and 1930.

that was just posted, may possibly be adapted for your census
purposes.
Just a thought,

Ok, enough of sources. But while I slog my way through cleaning up all those
poorly imported sources, particularly my huge census project, I have seen
where I have some census "holes". Lots of them, as a matter of fact. I might
have located the 1900, 1920 and 1930 census for a family, but not the 1910.
For another I might be missing the 1900, or the 1870 for some others. I
don't know why this has happened, whether I didn't actually look for the
missing census or whether I just couldn't find the family.
Is there a way to search for individuals for which I *do not* have a 1900
census event (or 1910, etc.), but according to all other information were
alive, so that a further search is worthwhile?
