A survey conducted by Better Homes and gardens Real Estate LLC showed that one in five U.S. homeowners have either moved from their home or would like to move because their neighborhood or community isn't ideal for their lifestyle (Better Homes and gardens Real Estate website, September 26, 2013). The top lifestyle priorities of respondents when searching for their next home include ease of commuting by car, access to health and safety services, family-friendly neighborhood, availability of retail stores, access to cultural activities, public transportation access, and nightlife and restaurant access. Suppose a real estate agency in Denver, Colorado, hired you to conduct a similar study to determine the top lifestyle priorities for clients that currently have a home listed for sale with the agency or have hired the agency to help them locate a new home.
a. What is the population for the survey you will be conducting?
b. How would you collect the data for this study?
