Community survey: satisfaction, priorities and ideas

A community survey is a good way to find out what people really care about. This conversational form asks how satisfied people are with the community, their top priorities (safety, events, green spaces, transport, housing or culture), their ideas and, optionally, their age group.

Who it is for

When to use it

Share the link where people gather, online or on a poster with a QR code. Keep it short, which raises the share of people who finish it. The priorities question shows what matters most, and the open question surfaces ideas you had not thought of.

Questions people ask

Is the survey anonymous?
The template asks for no name or email. Say how you will use the answers.
Can I ask more questions?
Yes, but short surveys get more answers. Add a few questions at most.
Can people answer more than once?
Not by default. The one-answer-per-email setting needs an email question, which this anonymous survey does not have. Ask people to answer once, and watch for unusual patterns.
