NM Local News Survey
New Mexico Local News Fund, Press Forward New Mexico, and UNM Center for Regional Studies invites New Mexico residents to help them improve local news and information by taking this short 10-minute survey. You’ll be eligible to win one of two iPads!
This is about how you get news about what’s happening in your area—your neighborhood, town, county, Pueblo or Reservation. Local can also include news about the entire state.
You don’t have to answer any questions you don’t want to, and you can end the survey at any time by closing your web browser. All results are anonymous.
To be eligible to take the survey you must be a New Mexico resident. At the end, you be asked to provide a valid email or phone number to be eligible to win one of two Apple iPads in a random drawing.
