The following figures are derived from data from the Anchorage Community Survey, which was conducted by the Justice Center in late 2004 and early 2005. They present percentages for the respondents who answered pertinent questions. A total of 2,485 Anchorage residents participated in the survey. Response rates varied for each survey item, with an average of more than 80 percent of survey participants answering the questions represented by these figures. The percentages are based only on the total number of respondents providing substantive answers to the given questions. Those who could not answer or refused to provide a response were not included in calculating percentages.
