The week of November 10^th, the Illinois Institute for Rural Affairs at Western Illinois University (IIRA) will be mailing you a housing survey. The purpose of this survey is to gain a better picture of current housing conditions and needs in Mercer County. 

Results of the survey, along with other data, will be used to complete a comprehensive housing profile. Individual survey responses are anonymous and confidential and will be viewed only by IIRA and Mercer EDP staff. We will share the housing profile with Mercer County residents. 

Mercer County Board Chair Tom Harris asks you to invest a few minutes of your time to complete the survey and return it by mail using the provided self-addressed, stamped envelope by November 20. 

For more information, contact Jenny Garner, CED Educator / Mercer EDP Office at (309) 582-7695.
