Surveys
Together - not alone!
Results of the survey on meeting places are available
475 citizens took part in the survey entitled "Together - not lonely!" on meeting places in Chemnitz's neighbourhoods, which the city of Chemnitz called for in the summer. The aim of the survey, which took place as part of the Capital of Culture project "Spaces of Generosity - Places of Encounter", was to visualise the diversity of existing meeting places, assess their importance for social interaction and gain new impetus for existing and new places of encounter.
The results show that public outdoor spaces (275 responses), cafés and restaurants (215 responses), cultural and sports facilities (195 responses) and meeting centres (195 responses) are among the most popular meeting places. Meeting places (116 mentions) and parks and green spaces (103 mentions) were mentioned particularly often as personal favourites.
Overall, the feedback makes it clear that meeting places are of great importance for people in Chemnitz and for living together. They create spaces for exchange, strengthen neighbourhoods and help to prevent loneliness.
The results provide the meeting places as project partners, as well as other neighbourhood associations and initiatives, with a basis for further developing existing meeting places and implementing new ideas.
