State of the Community - Local Feedback |
Introduction
We are conducting a community feedback survey as part of the 2025 State of the Community Report for Gunnison County. Building on the original report completed in 2022, this update aims to provide a deeper and more current understanding of our community’s well-being by shifting focus from collecting new data to inviting the community to analyze existing local data.
Recent data trends reveal concerns such as increased isolation, financial insecurity, and rising rates of suicidality. By seeking your insights and perceptions, we aim to uncover the deeper stories and contributing factors behind these issues. That is, your analysis helps us move beyond the numbers to better understand the lived realities they reflect—an essential step in identifying challenges and developing community-grounded solutions.
In summary, centering your voices ensures the report is both created for the community and guided by its insights.
Thank you for sharing your perspective and helping us create a report that captures our community’s strengths, challenges, and aspirations.
