City Centre Neighbourhood Survey

Cork City Council is conducting a survey of City Centre residents to better understand how people feel about living in the City Centre and what you consider to be the key issues affecting life in City Centre neighbourhoods. This information will be used to help shape Cork City Council's future actions and priorities in the City Centre.

The survey can be completed in as little as six minutes, but there is space for open comments so may take more time if you have a lot to share. All contributions are appreciated! To complete the City Centre Neighbourhood Survey click here.
