Adults Residents' Perception Survey 2023 - 24

Overview

The council is currently conducting an Adults Residents’ Perception Survey with a sample of 2,000 residents, aged 18+, from across the borough. The survey asks residents for their views on local services and various aspects of life in their local area.

The council has commissioned Opinion Research Services (ORS), an independent social research company, to conduct the survey via the telephone and face-to-face on street interviews.

To ensure a cross section of Barnet's population is represented, ORS use a randomly selected sample of addresses and landlines provided from the telephone exchanges, as well as purchasing list of mobile numbers from commercial suppliers based on living in Barnet. ORS will also be selecting a representative sample of residents to take part in the survey face to face in our town centres and other public places.

Please note, the council has not provided any customer contact details of our residents for this research. The sample is set to quota in terms of age, gender, working status, ethnicity and housing tenure to ensure the achieved sample is representative of Barnet's population.
