Kinder Institute (Rice University) Houston Area Survey Kinder Institute (Rice University) The mission of the Kinder Institute for Urban Research is to advance understanding of the most critical issues facing Houston and other leading urban centers. The institute conducts scientific research, supports educational programs and engages in public outreach with the goal of fostering informed decision-making and the development of more humane and sustainable cities. The graphics in this lecture are taken from the 2014 and 2015 Houston Area Surveys.

Lecture Outline Polling Results of the People of Houston & Harris and Fort Bend Counties Evaluations of Houston Evaluations of Job Opportunities Problems Facing Houston Immigrants and Immigration The Death Penalty, Sentencing, and Marijuana Gay Rights Term Limits Minimum Wage Cut and Pasted from Report: “Beginning with the 2012 survey, the annual study now is reaching scientifically selected representative samples of residents from the entire nine‐county Greater Houston region. (There used to be 10 counties; since February 2013, San Jacinto County is no longer included in the definition by the U.S. Census of the “Houston-The Woodlands-Sugar Land” metropolitan area.) The 1,353 respondents who were interviewed in the basic 2014 survey included 305 (23 percent) from outside Harris County; 38 percent of all the survey participants were contacted by cell phone.” “The interviews were completed between Feb. 12 and March 12 by Social Science Research Solutions (SSRS). This year, an additional 400 interviews were conducted in Fort Bend County, to reach a total of 508 respondents from the Houston area’s second‐largest county.”
