The City of Sisters conducted a public safety survey in November of 2021. The intent of the survey was to reach residents and business owners within the City and gather direct data regarding feelings on public safety and levels of law enforcement. In order to do this, the City used utility accounts for residents and businesses as the survey distribution list.

A total of 1,800 surveys were distributed. There was a survey and return envelope within each delivered envelope with pre-paid postage. On the survey, the City noted to return the survey by November 30, 2021. However, as surveys were still coming in consistently past that date, the City included surveys returned through December 6, 2021. Through December 6, 2021, the City received 662 completed surveys equaling a 36.7% response rate. The report of results on the public safety survey can be found at the link below.:
