What makes a region successful?

East-West Gateway is producing its ninth edition of the agency’s flagship document, Where We Stand (WWS). For more than 30 years, Where We Stand has been ranking St. Louis among its peer regions on a range of topics that are commonly considered most important for the success of the region. As we develop this edition, we would like public input to better understand what “success” means to the region's residents. We want to know what factors are important to YOU regarding a high quality of life and regional success and vitality. Your responses will guide us in assessing factors that lead to the success or detriment of the St. Louis region.

The St. Louis region includes the city of St. Louis and the surrounding seven counties: Franklin, Jefferson, St. Charles, and St. Louis counties in Missouri and Madison, Monroe, and St. Clair counties in Illinois.

Please take about 3-5 minutes to fill out the survey and share your thoughts with us.

The survey closing date has been extended to July 31st! Please share it with your friends and networks!

For updates on the ninth edition of WWS and periodic announcements of new reports and data updates on topics important to the St. Louis region, subscribe to the Where We Stand email list. Visit www.ewgateway.org/wws for data tracked by the publication series.
