Neighborhood Events Participation & Satisfaction Survey
Measures how residents discover, attend, and rate neighborhood events like block parties, markets, and festivals, plus what would get them out more often. An AI follow-up interview digs into the real reasons behind satisfaction scores and attendance barriers instead of stopping at a number.

Q09
AI Interview
Anchor on the respondent's overall satisfaction rating and any barriers they selected. If satisfaction was low or they cited timing, cost, or lack of awareness, ask them to walk through the last event they considered but skipped and what specifically would have changed their decision. If they rated things highly or picked a clear favorite event type in the trade-off question, explore what made that experience work so well. End by asking for one concrete change they'd make to next month's event.

AI-drafted copy

Auto report

How it compares
We reviewed the closest templates from other survey tools. Here’s what they do well — and where this template goes further.
Why this template
- Includes a best-worst trade-off exercise that pinpoints which event types (block parties, markets, festivals) residents most and least want, not just a generic satisfaction score
- Pairs an opinion-scale satisfaction question and a barriers multiple-choice with an AI follow-up interview that anchors on the respondent's own rating and selected barriers to dig into the real 'why'
- Covers the full discovery-to-attendance funnel (how residents hear about events, how often they attend, what stops them) plus a matrix rating and open-ended long-text field for ideas
- Closes with tenure and age-range questions so results can be segmented by how long someone has lived in the neighborhood
SurveyMonkey
Neighborhood Events Survey TemplateA ready-to-field template covering similar ground (attendance, discovery channels, satisfaction) for neighborhood events. It's a static question set built for quick deployment through SurveyMonkey's standard survey and reporting tools rather than any kind of adaptive interviewing. Good for a fast benchmark, but every respondent gets the identical follow-up (none) regardless of their answers.
What it does well
- Established survey platform with broad template library and familiar builder
- Fast to launch with pre-built neighborhood-events-specific questions
- Likely integrates with SurveyMonkey's existing analysis and benchmarking tools
Where it falls short
- Static question flow only — no adaptive AI follow-up to probe why someone rated satisfaction low or cited a specific barrier
- No automated per-response quality scoring to flag low-effort answers
- No published methodology or transparent prompt logic for how deeper insights are derived, because there isn't a follow-up interview layer
