Are there complete street censuses available?

I'm on ancestry and I've only found the 1881 census for the particular street and no other listings. How do I find subsequent years,?
Is ancestry a bad site for this and is there a preferable one, or am I doing it wrong- I've put the street name in as the keyword.
Thanks wise ones.

I don't think road names are indexed particularly thoroughly. The way I do it is to go through the first page of each of the enumeration district books and read the description of the district (see example pic) to see if that book hold the details.

If you're happy to give me the road name and the town, I'll have a look for you.

I think FindMyPast is better for this. If you Google ‘search census by street name’ it allows you to filter by census year and then enter street name and town.
