Calgary Housing Company (CHC) manages over 7,000 affordable homes, serving nearly 25,000 Calgarians, including almost 10,000 children.

CHC regularly conducts a Resident Satisfaction Survey to provide residents with an opportunity to give feedback on CHC’s service delivery and share information about their well-being. The results are used by CHC to continually improve service delivery and better support resident and community well-being. The most recent survey was conducted via telephone and online from May 31 to June 17, 2021. A total of 600 residents completed the survey.
