Every few years starting in 1968, the city has conducted a Community Attitude Survey. The City Council heard the results of the 2026 survey in its meeting Tuesday. Full survey results are now available on the city website (link in comments).
Many of us feel fortunate to live where we do, something reflected in the survey results. Ninety-one percent of respondents say their quality of life here is excellent or good. This is similar to the result in the 2023 survey.
There is remarkably little change in the services residents like year after year: Safe streets, abundant parks and open space, and excellent public schools consistently finish at or near the top of survey results each time (Table 2). Moreover, residents generally satisfied with the way the city provides these services (Table 3), with scores in several areas improving since the 2023 survey.
One significant change from even a few years ago is that many residents want the city to address homelessness, and appreciate the steps the city is taking. With the opening of the Thrive Grove temporary shelter last year, unsheltered homelessness dropped 46% in 2025, and the number of encampments is currently at zero.
This survey was based on 1,071 random phone and online interviews, with a margin of error of +/- 3% at a 95% confidence interval. In addition to this statistically valid survey, all residents also had the opportunity to weigh in with individual responses. The city's website links to both sets of responses.

Last night the City Council held its annual priority-setting meeting in the Thousand Oaks Library. Council voted unanimously to continue its work in 11 key areas, though the "resiliency and sustainability" category listed here will probably be folded into the list of public works priorities to make a list with an even 10 items.
This was also an occasion to hear results of the 2026 Community Attitude Survey (more about that in a future post), and to hear updates from various city departments.
There was lots of positive news in the area of public safety. Assistant city manager Ingrid Hardy reported the Thrive Grove Navigation Center is full, and is beginning to see residents transition into permanent housing. All 30 beds are in use, and the facility is ready to accommodate an additional 20 beds using tiny homes; these too would be quickly filled.
In large part because of Thrive Grove opening, TOPD chief Jeremy Paris reported unsheltered homelessness has declined 46% in the past year, and there are currently no encampments within city limits.
Chief Paris also reported Thousand Oaks remains one of the safest cities in the nation. Overall, crime dropped 8% last year. Commercial and residential burglaries respectively dropped 39% and 16%.
Domestic violence continues to be an issue. TOPD and the city are partnering with the Ventura County District Attorney's Office to bring the much-needed resources of a Family Justice Center to the east county.
Chief Paris also reported significant reductions in DUI deaths and stepped-up enforcement and education efforts to deal with unlawful use of ebikes and e-motorcycles. The Ventura County Sheriff's Office is working with CVUSD and CRPD on education and outreach, and with state legislators on reforms to ebike laws.
Last but not least, chief Paris and team are planning to implement a drones-as first-responder capability to speed response time to incident calls and to give police additional information about possible hazards before deputies arrive on site.

Hmm, chatting with the paramedic in the family about the rattlesnake bite around here ("oh, there was another one yesterday... and they ran out of Crofab")
Me: "Is that three rattlesnake bites this week?!?!"
Him: "Oh, there have been more than that. They had to get Crofab up from Riverside County."
