* Local area is defined as any area within a 15-20 minute walk from home. All respondents who answered 'fairly strongly' or 'very strongly'. Interviews for the latest period were conducted from August 2012 to April 2013. Methodology information: A random probability survey that uses the postal address file held by the Post Office as its source to draw a random sample from. Selected addresses were sent a letter, letting them know about the Community Life Survey, after which an interviewer visited the address to attempt to complete the survey. One adult over the age of 16 was randomly selected to take part in the survey in each selected household.
