The City works with a research firm to conduct surveys of residents every other year.
These surveys measure residents’ level of satisfaction with municipal services, programs and amenities. The data is used for continuing analysis and comparison with previous survey results and benchmarks.
Most of the residents surveyed were highly satisfied with City services. In particular, many rated Overland Park an excellent place to live, to raise children and to work.
A majority of respondents said they were satisfied with the City’s parks and facilities, quality of police, fire and ambulance services, and felt safe in their neighborhoods.
Some residents expressed they would like more emphasis on the maintenance of city streets and traffic flow in the future.
The following documents make up the community survey results. They show survey questions and response statistics, major findings and responses by geographical area.
