Greenwood - Phinney Ridge: 2005 Follow Up Survey

Document Actions
The first ComNETsm surveys were conducted in the spring and summer of 2004 in four Seattle neighborhoods: Greenwood-Phinney Ridge, Capitol Hill, North Beacon Hill and the International District. There were a total of 1159 incidents recorded from these initial surveys. In May 2005, Sustainable Seattle conducted four “follow-up” surveys, in which volunteers surveyed the same routes as in the 2004 surveys, but rather than collect new conditions, this survey checked whether the original conditions still existed. If the surveyors did not find the original conditions, the incidents were recorded as “resolved ”. Of the 1159 incidents recorded in 2004, 386 were found to be “resolved” by the time of the follow up survey.
