This survey/questionnaire will ask about your opinions for different affordable housing policies/programs, and it will take you approximately 15 minutes to complete.

You may not directly benefit from this research; however, we hope that your participation in this study may provide a better insight for nonprofits working on housing issues and the City of Flagstaff Housing Commission about what policies/programs residents want to see in place to address housing issues. We believe that there are no known risks associated with this study; however, as with any online related activity, the risk of a breach in confidentiality is always possible. Your answers to these questions will remain anonymous. We will minimize any risks by keeping survey responses on an encrypted drive and keeping IP addresses secured by not tracking them.
