The Chart presents the composite score for each of the eleven aspiration statements, based on the web responses of tri-county residents. It is clear that respondents felt strongly toward the statement, “Individuals and families meet their basic needs for food, shelter and other necessities,” as nearly half (47 percent) listed it among their top 3 choices.

We knew each statement would be important to the region, which helps explain why they all ranged below the 50% mark.
