The provided tables delineate the outcomes of two surveys conducted in the year 1980 and 2010, comparing the quality of various aspects of life in one city.
Overall, most disciplines in the surveys reported good feedback as a predominant percentage, except for transport in 2010. Also notable is the improvement in education and employment, as opposed to the remaining categories.
Regarding the aspects that had been improved during the given period, education’s good feedback represented about three-fourths of the total in 1980, which was 15 percentage points higher than employment’s, at 62%. However, while education recorded 23% of neutral feedback and only 5% of bad response, employment registered up to 10% of its feedback as being negative, with neutral feedback at 22%. In 2010, a significant rise to 82% was witnessed in the positive figure for education, making it the most complimented area, yet its bad response also increased to 8%. In the meantime, the good figure for employment also rose dramatically to 72%, while its bad feedback witnessed an approximately twofold increase to 23%.
Concerning the remaining aspects, the most favored aspect in 1980 was healthcare, which received 82% good feedback, far exceeding the most condemned discipline, which was transport, by 30%. By 2010, positive response for both aspects declined to 74% and 39% respectively, correlating with the increases in bad feedback to 12% and 38%. As for environment and shops, their good figures were, in turn, 72% and 64% in 1980, which then declined, but at different paces. While the figure for the former slightly dropped by 1%, that for the latter fell to 60% at the end of the period. Notably, the two aspects recorded the same percentage of negative feedback in 2010, at 16%.
