Regional Stakeholder Survey
Your perspective contributes to a regional research effort that measures conditions, ranks priorities, and informs action on Southern Oregon's economy.
The Southern Oregon Economic Conditions Index is a multi-year body of primary research that translates stakeholder insight into measurable regional indices and ranked priorities. Findings inform those in business, economic development, workforce, education, government, and policy.
This inaugural edition arrives at an intentional moment, alongside several statewide councils and strategies currently underway at the Governor's Office and Business Oregon. The timing positions SOREDI to analyze Southern Oregon's opportunities in direct context with those broader efforts.
Combined with analysis from the SOREDI Economic Data Dashboard, the resulting report integrates the stakeholder survey, strategic alignment with statewide efforts, data-backed gap analysis, and regional comparison work.

The survey is anonymous and your individual responses cannot be retrieved or linked back to you later. Nothing is stored on your device. Once you close this page, your individual summary is no longer available.
This survey is anonymous and collection of information is limited to the user input and interaction during the survey. We do not use cookies and we do not store anything on your device. Responses are stored on SOREDI's own website infrastructure and are not shared with third-party form-processing services. To protect the integrity of the results, we gather basic technical information such as time spent on the survey, browser type, and internet protocol-based approximate location. This helps us exclude out-of-area responses and attempts to skew the results with multiple submissions.
