v <br />Y <br />1 <br />IIS <br />Most residents rated the quality of life in Ramsey as excellent or good <br />and this was similar to the benchmark (see Appendix B of the <br />Technical Appendices provided under separate cover). <br />Shown below are the eight facets of community. The color of each <br />community facet summarizes how residents rated it across the three <br />sections of the survey that represent the pillars of a community — <br />Community Characteristics, Governance and Participation. When most <br />ratings across the three pillars were higher than the benchmark, the <br />color for that facet is the darkest shade; when most ratings were lower <br />than the benchmark, the color is the lightest shade. A mix of ratings <br />(higher and lower than the benchmark) results in a color between the <br />extremes. <br />Overall Quality of Life <br />Excellent <br />14% <br />Poor <br />0% <br />0% HOrio <br />10400001110001 <br />01,1, 100000016 <br />Fair <br />28% <br />Good <br />58% <br />In addition to a summary of ratings, the image below includes one or more stars to indicate which community <br />facets were the most important focus areas for the community. Residents identified Safety and Economy as <br />priorities for the Ramsey community in the coming two years. It is noteworthy that Ramsey residents gave <br />favorable ratings to these facets of community. In fact, ratings for all facets including Mobility, Natural <br />Environment, Built Environment, Recreation and Wellness, Education and Enrichment and Community <br />Engagement were positive and similar to other communities. This overview of the key aspects of community <br />quality provides a quick summary of where residents see exceptionally strong performance and where <br />performance offers the greatest opportunity for improvement. Linking quality to importance offers community <br />members and leaders a view into the characteristics of the community that matter most and that seem to be <br />working best. <br />Details that support these findings are contained in the remainder of this Livability Report, starting with the <br />ratings for Community Characteristics, Governance and Participation and ending with results for Ramsey's <br />unique questions. <br />Le end <br />• Higher than national benchmark <br />Similar to national benchmark <br />Lower than national benchmark <br />Most important <br />
