What is Quality of Life? <br />Location and general quality of life are the most frequently selected categories that <br />residents liked most about living in Washington County. On a regular basis, Washington <br />County conducts its Residential Survey to provide residents the opportunity to rate the <br />quality of life in the county, as well as service delivery, and community characteristics. <br />Survey results are benchmarked against over 500 counties across the country. In 2016, <br />residents were given a list of potential attributes of Washington County and were asked <br />to identify one thing that they liked most about living in Washington County. The most <br />frequently selected categories were location and quality of life in general; at least one - <br />quarter of residents selected each of these items. In addition, outdoor recreational <br />opportunities, ease of travel by car, the overall feeling of safety in Washington County <br />and the overall image or reputation of Washington County received the highest average <br />ratings from residents, and when benchmarked against other counties, these ratings <br />were much higher than other counties in the country. According to Greater MSP and <br />site selectors, a high quality of life helps create economic development opportunities. <br />10 <br />
