The City of Loveland’s National Community Survey moves into its next phase of information gathering this week. Starting July 7, the survey will be available online and in-person at various City facilities.
Online Survey
Those who take the survey online will need to provide their email address and zip code before submitting their responses. This ensures that each person only takes the survey once and confirms whether the survey-taker lives in the city. Respondent information remains confidential. To access the online open participation survey, visit polco.us/Loveland2026.
In-Person Survey
For those who prefer completing a print version of the survey, paper copies can be picked up and returned to the following locations: City Clerk's Office and the Utility Billing Office at the Civic Center Municipal Building, 300 E. 3rd St., the Loveland Public Library, 300 N. Adams Ave., and the Chilson Recreation Center, 700 E. Fourth St.
About the Survey
The biennial National Community Survey closes July 27, and it helps staff collect much-needed feedback from residents.
The first phase of feedback gathering began June 2, when 4,000 randomly selected households in the City of Loveland received an invitation by mail to complete the survey. Instead of completing the online or in-person survey, residents chosen for the random sample are encouraged to complete the survey using the information that was mailed to them. The random sample survey sent through the mail and the open participation survey are identical.
Survey data will be compiled and shared with the public this fall. The City of Loveland uses The National Community Survey™ (The NCS™) through the National Research Center/Polco to conduct our community survey, which allows the City to compare local results to nationwide data.
If you have questions about the survey, please email the City's Communication and Engagement Department at OCE@CityofLoveland.org or call 970-962-2302.

CORRECTION: The original version said the survey closes July 29 and this was updated to read July 27.
