Community Survey
The Town of Estes Park will conduct the biennial National Community Survey in 2025. A random sample of approximately 3,000 households will receive a questionnaire asking for feedback on quality of life, town services, and other important community topics in July. The results will be available to the public in the fall, and will be used by Town officials for community planning and resource allocation, program improvement, policy-making and tracking changes in residents’ opinions about government performance. An open, non-scientific survey is conducted late July - August so that all community members may participate.
The National Community Survey:
- Is endorsed by the International City/County Management Association
- Is used by more than 500 local government agencies around the country
- Is completely anonymous
- Offers benchmark database comparisons to other communities
- Uses a questionnaire developed by survey researchers and local government experts
- Is designed to provide comprehensive feedback about the community’s quality of life and quality of local government services
- Allows Estes Park to track historical trends across 10 key facets of livability and hundreds of individual questions, back to 2011 when the Town began using the National Community Survey model
