SGIO Survey Reveals How Perth Shows Its Community Spirit

‘Taking an active role in our community can help us influence outcomes that affect our day-to-day lives and create more resilient communities with reduced crime and safer roads,’ he said.

Other results from the SGIO Community Spirit Survey included:

Mr Cory said it was encouraging to see that many Perth people were passionate about their local communities and wanted to contribute to it and strengthen them.

‘Many people in Perth appear to have a healthy balance between the hustle and bustle of city life and playing a part in their local community,’ he said.

‘It was also pleasing to see that while 42 per cent of people said they didn’t feel connected, they actually wanted to be more active in their community and we urge these people to get involved.

The Community Spirit Survey is part of SGIO’s ongoing research and commitment into identifying issues and trends that have an impact on households and their communities.

*Based on a WA survey of 600 respondents by Pure Profile Research for SGIO, June 2010
