Short facts about the Copenhagen Area Survey:
New survey results find that 88% of Copenhageners believe Copenhagen is a better place to live than other northern European cities. And 85% of Copenhagen area adults are satisfied with their quality of life.
At the same time, only 2% of adults in the Copenhagen area think relations between Danes and nonwestern immigrants are excellent, and nearly 60% believe that the increasing ethnic diversity of the Copenhagen area will eventually become a growing problem for the region.
Such are a few of the findings from the just completed Copenhagen Area Survey, a random survey of 1093 adults in the Copenhagen region. The survey is an inside look at what Copenhageners think on important issues of the day and on the issues affecting their quality of life in the region.*
Funded by the Kinder Institute for Urban Research at Rice University in Houston, Texas, USA and sponsored by the Danish Institute for Study Abroad, the survey was conducted by Epinion in April, 2014. The survey reached a random sample of 1093 adults, and the on-line interviews averaged 17 minutes in length.
?The Copenhagen Area Survey was conducted at the same time as the Houston Area Survey, allowing for fascinating comparisons across these two very different types of cities. The surveys will be used for a book A Tale of Two Cities: Copenhagen, Houston, and Our Urban Future,?
noted survey director Michael Oluf Emerson, who is also Co-Director of the Kinder Institute at Rice University and a visiting faculty member at the Danish Institute for Study Aboard.
Emerson will lead a presentation on the Copenhagen Areas Survey?s main findings on May 12th from 18:00-19:00 at Vestergade 23, classroom 301. At that time the full report on the survey?s findings will also be made available.
The presentation will be followed by a champagne reception.
