Prepared by National Research Center, Inc. City of Louisville Community Survey <br /> June 2020 <br /> <br />Report of Results <br /> 8 <br />Regarding other aspects that contribute to a high quality of life, nearly all participants gave high marks to <br />Louisville as a place to live (99% excellent or good) and as a place to raise children (97%). At least three- <br />quarters of respondents rated the community as a place to retire and to work as excellent or good. Ratings for <br />all general aspects of quality of life remained stable from 2016 to 2020. <br />Ratings for these measures were much higher in Louisville than in national and Front Range comparison <br />communities. Notably, the rating for Louisville as a place to raise children was #2 out of 381 comparison <br />communities nationwide (see Appendix D: Benchmark Comparisons). <br /> <br />Figure 3: Aspects of Quality of Life by Year <br /> Prior to 2020, aspects of quality of life were worded as individual questions within the larger grid and included the wording "How do <br />you rate…" at the beginning of each item listed. <br />About 3 in 10 respondents selected “don’t know” when rating Louisville as a place to work and Louisville as a place to retire. Ratings <br />shown in the body of the report are for those who had an opinion.
