Every other year, the City of Marion uses The National Community Survey™ to measure service performance, assess community needs and make strategic planning decisions.
The survey, administered by Polco and the National Research Center, Inc., is now open to all residents and available at polco.us/Marion2025.
With questions identical to the random sample survey mailed to 3,000 households last month, the online survey asks about the quality of life in the community, local policies, demographics, local government services and more.
Residents who received an invitation to complete the mail-in survey are asked to follow those instructions rather than complete the opt-in online survey.
The deadline to participate is Nov. 26, 2025.
