At the end of 2023, Uptown Consortium, Inc. (UCI) sought input from residents, workers, students and visitors to share their perspectives of Uptown. The insights from the survey responses are a key element for UCI and its Members to use as we strive towards our shared vision of shaping Uptown into an inclusive, connected and livable community.
Most notably, respondents shared what they believe to be the top three priorities in Uptown: safety and walkability (tied for #1), public transportation and beautification. Furthermore, the top three future additions to Uptown ranked in the following order: places to eat/drink, bike paths/lanes and parks/playgrounds.
We extend a sincere “Thank You” to everyone who participated in the survey. As promised, we randomly selected the names of five participants in a drawing for a $100 gift card to an Uptown business of their choosing. Here are the winners and, in their own words, why they participated:
Even though the survey is now closed, you can still share feedback with us by contacting UCI’s Director of Community Development & External Relations, Brooke Rapp at brapp@uptownconsortium.org.
