Local Government Barometer


The satisfaction of citizens is a key factor in the development of municipalities. In order to achieve this, it is vital to know, in a systematic way, the satisfaction of citizens in order to steer local government management towards citizens.

  • Notoriety of elected representatives
  • Future of the municipality
