[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It appears 565 county residents out of the 5000 invited completed the survey. That’s not a large sample for a county this size. (The responses collected by the open link on county social media sites were not included in the main report.) I don’t think this survey is very useful. (Source: page 5)[/quote] I don't think you're a statistician. [/quote] Can 565 responses truly represent 1.1 million people? Do I need to be a statistician to answer that?[/quote] Further, you would need to discard responses to get a sample that is representative. For instance, if 90% of the responses are from retired seniors, most of those responses are useless in representing the general population which is not 90% retired.[/quote]
