Good morning, Omahans!
I am a student of an Omaha-area high school and am taking a class called AP Research. For this class, we conduct a year-long research project about a specific topic. My research question is "To what extent does tax increment financing effect urban blight in the City of Omaha?", and am using a survey to collect data.
This survey should take about 5 and asks questions about how conditions in your neighborhood have changed over the last decade. Basic demographic questions are asked to determine if you are eligible to complete this survey and whether you live in an area that utilizes tax increment financing. All questions are optional, and no personal identifying information is collecting.

Thank you so much!
EDIT— Please share with anyone who may also complete this survey!

You may want to add a more specific qualifier for your second question. By "living in the same place for 10 years" did you mean, same address, same zip, city, etc? Might end up disqualifying respondents you didn't intend to depending on the interpretation of "same place".APResearchSurvey wrote: ↑Thu Feb 05, 2026 4:20 pm Good morning, Omahans!

Thank you for your feedback! The question has been changed to "Have you resided within the same neighborhood for at least 10 years?" to improve clarity!almighty_tuna wrote: ↑Fri Feb 06, 2026 5:23 pmYou may want to add a more specific qualifier for your second question.
