Shropshire residents may have received a copy of a survey, asking for their views about life in the county, during winter 2008.
The Place Survey is part of a national survey which all councils carry out every two years. The survey is sent to a random selection of residents.
The survey aims to determine local people's views, experiences and perceptions about the area in which they live, and to help councils decide what they need to do to improve the quality of life for all.
The survey asks everything from how safe you feel after dark in your area and how satisfied you are with refuse collection to what you think about your local GP, shopping facilities and traffic congestion.
It also asks how well local people feel informed about local public services overall and whether they feel they can get involved in local democracy and volunteering.
All the findings will be used to identify areas where services need improving.
A summary of the key findings from the Place Survey will be published by May 2009.
