Quality of Life Survey

The Quality of Life Survey is a partnership between 8 Quality of Life Project Cities. It has been conducted every two years since 2004 (2003, 2004, 2006 and 2008) and measures the perceptions of over 6,000 residents living in the country’s largest cities and districts.

Topics covered in the survey include:

  • Quality of Life
  • Health and Well-being
  • Crime and safety
  • Community, Culture and Social Networks
  • Council Processes
  • Built Environment
  • Public Transport
  • Lifestyle – Work and Study

 

Information obtained from the survey will be used to help inform central and local government policy makers.  The information will be particularly useful for cities undertaking monitoring of progress towards strategic social, cultural and economic goals.
