4. The City of Tampere asks about the well-being of its residents

The City of Tampere uses an online survey to find out about the experiences of Tampere residents in terms of well-being and neighbourhoods. The map-based survey will be open for two weeks from 6 to 19 February 2023. It is hoped that all Tampere residents respond to the survey.

Every two years, the City of Tampere conducts a survey that charts the experiences of Tampere residents about their well-being and their neighbourhood. The results of the survey will be utilised in the planning of the city’s services and in the development of neighbourhoods, among other things. In 2021, the survey was responded to by 4,500 Tampere residents, who made more than 21,000 map markings.
