Description

James L. Koch & Ross Miller. Over the past decade as Silicon Valley experienced a high-tech gold rush, people converged on the region from around the world. Many of them arrived not planning to stay, but some did settle permanently. The challenge is for Silicon Valley to create community in the midst of the greatest wealth creation in history. Two Community Fdns. partnered with 39 other communities in 29 states to collectively measure their community connections on a local & national level. They asked local residents a series of questions to discover, “How connected are we to each other?” This report provides the results of the survey. Some results are promising, but others leave much room for improvement.
