Are censuses reliable before 1911?

Correct me if I'm wrong but the 1911 census is details on one household and is actually filled out by the head of household so the information on it must be accurate. However the censuses before for e.g. 1891 and 1901 are a list of the whole road of households and so therefore is not filled out by the head of household, is that right?
