Dayton residents invited to participate in annual survey to shape city policies and services

Dayton, Ohio – The City of Dayton is reaching out to its residents for feedback on living in Dayton and their experiences with city government. The annual Dayton Survey is being mailed to approximately 13,000 randomly selected households throughout late August and early September. Residents should watch for an envelope with the City of Dayton logo and the message, “Help the City of Dayton serve you better by taking this survey!”

Survey Details and Participation

The survey includes around 80 questions that cover various aspects of city services, programs, priorities, and neighborhood quality-of-life issues. Residents in single-family homes, apartment complexes, and congregate settings will receive the survey by mail. Participation is anonymous, ensuring that respondents can share their thoughts freely.

Those who receive the survey are encouraged to complete and return it within two weeks of receipt. Additionally, participants have the option to respond online by visiting daytonresidentsurvey.org and using the unique PIN number provided in their survey packet.

Longstanding Tradition of Feedback and a Chance to Win

Dayton has been gathering resident feedback through surveys for more than 30 years, using the responses to help shape city policies and priorities. As an added incentive, the survey administrator, ETC Institute, will randomly select one respondent to receive a $500 VISA gift card. Only those who were part of the initial selection group and who complete the survey by mail or online will be eligible for the drawing, which will take place by December 2024.

Residents with questions about the survey can contact the City of Dayton at 937-333-3752 or via email at [email protected]. Your feedback is valuable in helping Dayton improve and serve the community better.
