Greenwich recently released the results of the 2025 Resident Satisfaction Survey. The data confirms that the community remains overwhelmingly pleased with life in town.
Overall Satisfaction: A staggering 89% of residents are satisfied with the quality of life in town.
The Gold Standard: Public safety (Police, Fire, and GEMS) and our local parks and beaches continue to receive the highest marks from the community.
The "Greenwich Curve": First Selectman Fred Camillo noted that while national trust in government is low, Greenwich remains a distinct outlier, ranking significantly better than most municipalities surveyed nationwide.
However, the survey—conducted by Probolsky Research—did highlight a few specific areas of local concern. Satisfaction scores for traffic management and infrastructure were lower than they were in the 2023 survey. While the town noted that these dips were not statistically significant given the margin of error, they reflect the daily frustrations of residents navigating aging facilities and increasing road congestion.
In response to the question of whether Greenwich residents "Can't Get No Satisfaction?" the AI responded with these lyrics:
🎸 (I Can't Get No) Greenwichfaction
(Intro: That iconic three-note riff kicks in over the sound of a distant leaf blower)
I can't get no... satisfaction
I can't get no... resident traction
'Cause I try, and I try, and I try, and I try
I can’t get no... I can't get no...
When I’m drivin’ in my car
And the North Street Bridge is down
That school-zone camera flashes
And my fifty bucks is gone
I can't get no... Greenwichfaction!
No, no, no. Hey, hey, hey! That’s what I say.
When I’m down at Hamill Rink
And the ice is getting old
They can’t decide on the flip
And the project's on hold
I can't get no... Greenwichfaction!
No, no, no. Hey, hey, hey! That’s what I say.
