They are just some of the questions in the 2014 Jersey Annual Social Survey which has gone out to 3,200 randomly selected households and also includes topics like health, employment, and public services.
The information given is used directly by the States in decision-making and in developing and planning public services.
Chief Statistician for Jersey Duncan Gibaut said: “The Social Survey has proven to be an invaluable source of information for the development of evidence-based policy, and its continued usefulness depends on the public’s support. We have had a very good response in previous years, and from this we know that people found that the topics were relevant to their lives.
“I would like to reassure everyone that all responses to the survey will be treated in the strictest confidence and will only be used to produce grouped numbers. So if you do receive a form please complete it and send it back. By doing so you’ll help us all gain a better understanding of social issues in the Island.”
The adult in each household with the next birthday is asked to complete the survey and they have until Friday 16 May to send their questionnaires back.
