PPIC Statewide Survey

Take Our Survey

Take our survey and see how you compare to the rest of Californians.*

  1. First, thinking about the state as a whole, what do you think is the most important issue facing people in California today?
  2. How much, if at all, have recent increases in gas prices affected your household's financial situation?
  3. Do you think the state budget situation in California-that is, the balance between government spending and revenues-is a big problem, somewhat of a problem, or not a problem for the people of California today?
  4. Do you think things in the United States are generally going in the right direction or the wrong direction?

*The “rest of Californians” responses were taken from the May 2026 PPIC Statewide Survey: Californians and Their Government.
