Citizen Survey

Shaping the Future of Decatur

The City of Decatur wants to know what residents really think about their community life and municipal government. Such input helps the City Commission make better-informed decisions and enables city staff to provide quality services that meet real community needs.

The 2024 survey is opening soon. 3,000 households were randomly selected by the City's survey partner Polco to participate in this year's survey. If you are selected, you will receive a notification postcard and a copy of the survey in the mail.

The results from the 2024 survey will be shared and posted later this summer.
