Citizen Survey Results

Georgetown embarked on a survey of citizens to assess how well the City is meeting the expectations of its citizens. The survey was conducted by Texas State University with the assistance of the city staff. The entire survey can be found here

Following are several of the key findings.


It is not a great surprise that the overall assessment is that the quality of life in Georgetown is exceptional.


Mobility is another story, significant improvements could be made in traffic flow and parking, especially downtown.

The survey indicates that the respondents are satisfied with the protective services provided by the city. 

It appears the respondents believe streets and traffic are in need of improvement, especially traffic signals and street repair.


73.8% think that the city is growing too fast or much too fast. In keeping with the principle of limited government intervention, it seems the city should only try to accommodate the growth, not impede the growth.
