Seattle University is administering the annual citywide Seattle Public Safety Survey, which is accessible at publicsafetysurvey.org from October 15th through November 30th.
The purpose of the survey is to solicit feedback on public safety and security concerns from those who live and/or work in Seattle.
A report on the survey results will be provided to the Seattle Police Department to help the SPD better understand safety and security concerns across the city.
Neighborhood and community-police dialogues will be held in May-August 2026. These dialogues provide opportunities for police-community engagement about the results.
The survey is available in Amharic, Arabic, Chinese, English, Korean, Oromo, Somali, Spanish, Tagalog, Tigrinya and Vietnamese.
