gHrç rn X o(-) cr+ o Vl c 3 3 o) -t no E o -lc+ Village of Key Biscayne 2OL8 Community Survey Executive Summary Purpose and Methodology ETC lnstitute administered a survey to residents of the Village of Key Biscayne during the summer of 2018. The purpose of the survey was to help the Village of Key Biscayne ensure that the village's priorities continue to match the needs and desires of its residents. The information provided will be used to improve existing services and help the Village better understand the evolving needs of residents in Key Biscayne. The seven-page survey, cover letter, and postage paid return envelope were mailed to a random sample of households in the Village of Key Biscayne. The cover letter explained the purpose of the survey and encouraged residents to either return their survey by mail or complete the survey online. At the end of the online survey, residents were asked to enter their home address; this was done to ensure that only responses from residents who were part of the random sample were included in the final survey database. Ten days after the surveys were mailed, ETC lnstitute sent emails and placed phone calls to the households that received the survey to encourage participation. The emails contained a link to the on-line version of the survey to make it easy for residents to complete the survey. To prevent people who were not residents of Key Biscayne from participating, everyone who completed the survey on-line was required to enter their home address prior to submitting the survey. ETC lnstitute then matched the addresses that were entered on-líne with the addresses that were originally selected for the random sample, lf the address from a survey completed on-line did not match one of the addresses selected for the sample, the on-line survey was not counted. A total of 549 residents completed the survey. The overall results for the sample of 549 households have a precision of at least +/-4.2% at the 95% level of confidence. The percentage of "don't know" responses has been excluded from many of the graphs shown in this report to facilitate valid comparisons of the results from Key Biscayne with the results from other communities in ETC lnstitute's DirectionFinder@ database. Since the number of "don't know" responses often reflect the utilization and awareness of village services, the percentage of "don't know" responses have been provided in the tabular data section of this report. When the "don't know" responses have been excluded, the text of this report will indicate that the responses have been excluded with the phrase "who had an opinion."
