2015 Quality of Life Survey to be mailed May 27

Edina, Minn., May 22, 2015 – The City of Edina’s 2015 Quality of Life Survey is under way.

The City contracted with National Research Center, Inc. (NRC) to develop a five-page survey. The survey includes questions about quality of life in Edina, local policies and amenities, rating of local government services and resident use of government services and facilities.

A random and scientific sample of 1,500 households will receive invitations to participate in the mailed survey. Their confidential responses will be weighted and analyzed. A postcard was mailed to the 1,500 households on Wednesday, May 20, alerting them that the survey would be mailed May 27. A second copy of the survey will be mailed June 3 with a reminder to residents to complete the survey if they have not already done so. In order to hear from a diverse group of residents, the adult 18 years or older in the household who most recently had a birthday should complete the survey. Residents who receive the survey may return the survey by mail or submit the survey online.

“Residents who participate in the survey will help shape the future of Edina,” said City Manager Scott Neal. “The feedback we receive through the survey will help the City of Edina make decisions that affect our community.”

NRC is the leader in the field of public sector research and evaluation, with clients across the country and around the globe. The firm is comprised of a skilled team of social scientists who support cities, counties, foundations and non-profit organizations in using research to help communities thrive. By using a national firm, the City of Edina will have access to national benchmarks to compare findings.

NRC’s clients in Minnesota completing custom surveys similar to the 2015 Edina Quality of Life Survey include Blaine, Carver County, Dakota County, Eden Prairie, Inver Grove Heights, Maple Grove, Minneapolis, Scott County, Shorewood, St. Louis County and Washington County.
