Residents in Dallas and Guthrie counties are encouraged to participate in a Greater Des Moines Partnership Central Iowa Broadband Internet Survey. 

The survey is available now through April 27th and is open to residents and businesses in Dallas and Guthrie counties. The purpose of the survey is to measure broadband internet availability and find places that don’t currently meet consumer needs and expectations. 

The hopes from the survey are to better increase broadband internet connectivity to make it easier to access things such as  distance learning, telecommuting and telehealth. The results of the survey will be used to help propose plans to increase broadband access.

There are two separate surveys to be taken, one for businesses and one for residents. The resident survey can be found here and the business survey can be found here.
