The Gauteng City-Region Observatory’s (GCRO) will on Tuesday, 13 November 2018, release the results of Quality of Life Survey 2017. The Quality of Life Survey is the largest ever social attitudes survey conducted in the Gauteng province. The results of the 2017 Survey will be launched by GCRO Executive Director, Rob Moore, and responded to by Gauteng Premier David Makhura.

This is the fifth in a series of biennial surveys and boasts over 30 000 respondents, sampled to provide robust results at provincial, municipal and ward levels. The Quality of Life Survey gives key insights into the lives and opinions of Gauteng residents.

It provides a holistic assessment of life in the Gauteng City-Region and zooms in to identify key areas and groups needing intervention and support. It serves as a tracking and diagnostic tool, affording a rich information resource for policy makers and the public wanting to see where progress is being made, and where concerns remain.
