City
of Corpus Christi Citizens Survey
This report marks the fourth
consecutive year that the City of Corpus Christi
and the Social Science Research Center at Texas
A&M University – Corpus Christi have collaborated
on the development and administration of a citizen’s
survey. The main objective of the research has focused
on obtaining citizens’ perceptions of service
quality on roughly 40-45 City programs and/or departments.
This year’s survey instrument included questions
regarding 41 service and quality of life issues
ranging from police and fire protection to keeping
citizens informed about matters which affect them.
Other questions addressed impressions of city employees,
modes of city communication with the citizenry and
the city’s business practices.
Data profiles for each
of the 12 counties of the Coastal Bend Region are
available in the form of Excel spreadsheets, PowerPoint
slides, and descriptive reports. The data were collected
and compiled under a contract with the Coastal Bend
Work-Force Development Board, Worforce1 under a
general mission to provide data on demographic and
labor market information to Workforce 1. A corresponding
data set for the State of Texas was also compiled.
A set of 88 indicators were selected
for the county profiles as 17 additional indicators
for each school district in the 12 county area.
The indicators cover the following areas:
- Demographics
- Youth Crime
- Adult Crime
- Victimization
- Education
- Economic Deprivation
