This survey summarizes public opinions in Nueces, San Patricio, and Kleberg Counties from September 2013. Over 700 residents were surveyed by phone about key issues in their communities. The top issues were the economy/jobs and roads/traffic. Respondents generally felt positive about where they live and work but were less satisfied with local politics and job opportunities for youth. The Eagle Ford Shale development was seen as improving the economy. Views on environmental quality, community health, the bay, and local industries were also assessed.
