Translated Community Survey: Half report City is doing a good job

Report
An image of a question from Audit Services' community survey translated into Spanish, Vietnamese, and Chinese. View full size image
We conducted a Community Survey to see how Portlanders view the quality of City services. In 2016, the Community Survey was translated into Spanish, Vietnamese, Chinese (Mandarin), and Russian. This report presents a snapshot of those survey responses.

The Community Survey was given in four languages besides English. While respondents offered similar rankings of major City services and livability measures, three differences stood out:

  • Respondents to translated surveys felt less safe walking alone in their neighborhood during the day
  • More respondents to translated surveys reported driving alone to work
  • Respondents to the translated surveys felt less positive about neighborhood livability
