The All In for New Orleans Community Survey was designed by almost 300 civic leaders who served as members of the Moreno Transition Policy Committees. The survey collected responses for 9 weeks between January 12 and March 15, 2026. The survey was offered online and on paper, and was available in English, Spanish, and Vietnamese.
In addition to the survey, the City delivered in-person engagement through two parallel efforts to reach residents directly across neighborhoods. First, Conversations in Community events were hosted by community-based organizations in trusted, local spaces. These partner-led sessions created room for deeper, small-group discussion grounded in lived experience and existing relationships, with a focus on reaching residents less likely to be reached through digital outreach alone. Second, the Mayor's Office of Neighborhood Engagement hosted Meet the Administration events in each Council District, creating direct access for residents to engage with new Mayor's Office City leadership and share priorities directly with City leaders. Over 400 participants attended 15 in-person events during the first three months of the Moreno administration.
The All In for New Orleans team and the Mayor's Office of Neighborhood Engagement monitored response rates every week and adjusted outreach strategy so participation in the survey was as representative as possible of the City of New Orleans population in terms of race, income, age, and geographical distribution. Outreach methods included flyer distribution at physical sites such as libraries, places of worship, parks and recreational facilities, and grocery stores; email and social media outreach leveraging the networks of the Moreno Transition Committee members; and targeted text blast campaigns.
In total, 7,002 residents engaged with the All In for New Orleans Community Survey. The All In for New Orleans team analyzed all responses from respondents who shared enough data on their demographic and policy priorities?5,768 total?to be included in the analyzable dataset made publicly available on the City's website.
To ensure that survey findings are representative of the demographics of the City of New Orleans, the All In for New Orleans team compared survey respondent demographics against the Census Bureau's American Community Survey Public Use Microdata Sample data, and applied weights for race and ethnicity, income, and age to calculate the citywide results. Data visualizations that reference "citywide," "all Council Districts," and/or "all Neighborhood Statistical Areas" findings have been weighted in this manner, while results that highlight filtered subsets of respondents (e.g., standalone racial and ethnic groups, income groups, and age groups) reflect the raw, unweighted data.
