Survey says....you like living in T.BAY

The latest "civic survey" is painting a mostly positive picture of Thunder Bay.  According to the IPSOS REID survey people like living in the City.  86 percent of people are satisfied with city services, with many saying they receive good value for their tax dollars.  Residents also rated the quality of life in the City very high at 87 percent. The two areas that are cited as in need of improvement are road maintenance and the police service.  Seven out of 10 people polled believe that the city is relatively safe, and six in ten feel safe walking in their own neighbourhood after dark.  500 interviews were completed among residents 18 years of age and older.
