Why Choose Probolsky Research for Your Next Community Survey?

  • Custom surveys: We create a custom survey strategy for every client. We do not take a cookie cutter approach to your survey. Your community is unique and you deserve to have research that addresses your specific goals.
  • Local government specialists: With hundreds of government agency clients, our team has designed and conducted over 1,000 surveys that accurately capture the voice of residents for cities, counties and special districts. This also means that we have experience with virtually every policy area, from public safety to public works, healthcare and social services, schools and libraries, community development, parks, trails and open-space, waste and recycling, transportation, public utilities, budget prioritization, elections and economic development.
  • Inclusive multi-mode approach: We use multiple modes like outbound and inbound telephone calls, online by email and text message, mail, panel, social media ads and even in-person interviews. We recommend the right mix of modes for each agency based on how your community prefers to communicate. This approach maximizes participation and reduces bias. No one should be left behind.
