Opinions and Lifestyle Survey 2016 report

30 November 2016

The 2016 report on the Jersey Opinions and Lifestyle Survey has been released today by the States of Jersey Statistics Unit.

Around 1,400 households took part in the random survey which collects information on the behaviours and opinions of Islanders.

Survey topics for 2016 included views on:

  • employment and work
  • caring for children
  • health (including smoking, drinking and mental health)
  • crime and policing
  • transport and infrastructure
  • culture and heritage
  • internet


The survey was run independently by the Statistics unit, with individual States departments requesting specific topic areas to be included. The results allow everyone in the Island to have a better understanding of social issues, and help in government decision-making.

This survey was formerly known as the Jersey Annual Social Survey, which has been run since 2005 and was renamed in 2016.
