Community Survey

Overview

Community Survey

Rocklin has partnered with Polco, a leader in the field of civic engagement and surveying, to issue the 2024 National Community Survey. We’d like all residents and community members to participate! 

Randomly selected households will receive mailed survey invitations over the next few weeks. If you receive an invitation, please follow the instructions and share your input. If you aren't selected for this initial survey effort, a community-wide survey will be available shortly. Watch our social media for announcements, or sign up to be notified when that survey is ready: polco.us/n/res/signup

Survey results will be compiled in a report by Polco and shared with the community upon completion. For more information on this survey questionnaire and/or process, contact Elizabeth Sorg, (916) 625-5582 or Elizabeth.Sorg@rocklin.ca.us
