How residents rate their overall quality of life can be a good indicator of the health of a community. To check on community health in the Bay Area’s largest city, SPUR and San José State University recently surveyed residents and students about the quality of life in San José and on campus. Results were less than stellar, indicating that residents are generally unhappy with the current state of San José across multiple facets. How can we address these qualms and restore resident satisfaction? Join us as we highlight findings related to aspects of San José's economy and identify some areas for continued focus, such as mobility, safety, and health and wellness.
