This project aims to survey quality of life in the state of Nebraska, covering topics such as the environment, housing, health, recreation, occupation, education, family life, among others. A set of core questions are repeated each year, and additional questions are purchased by those interested in gathering additional data. It is conducted by the Bureau of Sociological Research of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln in collaboration with state agencies and educational and research organizations. The 1993 survey was conducted among residents of Nebraska on many topics of local and state interest, including quality of life, work, agriculture, outdoor recreation and exercise, historic preservation, alternative fuel, children and family, healthcare, crime, domestic violence, and alcoholism.
