Frequently Asked Questions
What is a community survey?
It is a 10-minute, online survey sponsored by your community. It was created by Community Data Platforms’ team of data scientists and social scientists to better understand sentiment surrounding important issues.
This survey is part of the Community Survey Panel initiative, an avenue for sharing insights on important local topics in a safe, private and anonymous way.
Who is eligible to take the survey?
Anyone 18 years of age or older. We encourage residents from ALL walks of life to complete it in order to capture the full range of experiences and perspectives.
Why should I participate?
This survey is an opportunity to reflect on your relationship with your community. Your opinions matter. The aggregated survey results and analysis will provide insights into how community members feel about vital issues, including what’s working well and where there is room for improvement.
Do we need another survey? Doesn’t the community survey residents all the time?
Your community has a pressing need to understand community sentiment and surveys are a convenient way to reach a wide array of stakeholders. We believe surveys are especially necessary to ensure that the needs of underrepresented groups are brought to light. Our surveys are unique for their rigorous methodological approach.
Will you protect my data and privacy?
YES. Data privacy is critical to Community Data Platforms and we encourage you to read our Data Privacy Policy. CDP follows industry best-practices to ensure the confidentiality and privacy of your survey responses.
