On Monday, May 19, 2025, the City of Snoqualmie will launch the National Community Survey (NCS) to gather resident input for strategic planning initiatives and to align goals around the community’s top priorities.
This resident survey will gather feedback on government services and measure the quality of life in the community. The City will use the survey data to develop an upcoming strategic plan, allowing more people to participate in shaping that plan and the future of Snoqualmie.
Randomly selected households will receive mailed survey invitations over the next few weeks. Households that receive an invitation are asked to follow the enclosed instructions and complete the survey. All residents will have the opportunity to share their input when the survey opens to the entire community in mid-June.
“We are excited to receive more input from the community to guide our first-ever strategic plan and gauge the services we provide,” said Mayor Katherine Ross. “The survey gives residents an opportunity to tell us how they think we’re performing, which will allow us to measure our impact going forward.”
The National Community Survey was developed by National Research Center at Polco. The survey captures opinions on the economy, mobility, community design, utilities, safety, natural environment, inclusivity, engagement, and other elements of Snoqualmie's overall livability. The results will show Snoqualmie’s strengths, areas of improvement, and what matters most to residents. The City will also see how its performance compares to other communities across the country.
“We strongly encourage all residents to take the survey. The more people who participate, the better data we have to inform our plan and measure city services,” said Communications Coordinator Danna McCall. “This is an opportunity for everyone in the community to share their thoughts and shape the future of Snoqualmie.”
