“If you want to know what’s on the minds of Baltimore residents, you have to ask them. They are best equipped to speak frankly about challenges, inequities, and quality of life in this city of more than 550,000 people.
That’s the idea behind the annual Baltimore Area Survey, co-designed by Krieger School researchers in the 21st Century Cities Initiative (21CC) in collaboration with community leaders. The inaugural survey, deployed in 2023, asked questions about food insecurity, policing, transportation, substance use disorder, and other quality-of-life issues. Results were released late last year and are open source.”
