The Statistical Office of Basel-Stadt has released four new open datasets from its cantonal population survey on living conditions and satisfaction for the years 2011, 2015, 2019, and 2023, each structured with one row per person’s answer and collectively containing over 1.6 million records. The significant growth in record counts over time suggests an expanded survey scope, providing richer data for longitudinal analysis of well-being across themes such as housing, safety, employment, and health.
Four new datasets containing the results of the cantonal population survey on living conditions and satisfaction have been published on the Open Data Portal of Basel-Stadt, covering the survey years 2011, 2015, 2019, and 2023. Each dataset is structured so that each row represents one person's answer to a single survey question, resulting in large record counts: 294,104 records for 2011, 256,020 for 2015, 461,652 for 2019, and 657,280 for 2023. The surveys, conducted every four years by the Statistical Office, address themes such as housing, safety, mobility, employment and financial situation, education, social coexistence, politics, digitalization, health, and, in the most recent edition, also climate and environment. The substantial growth in the number of records—more than doubling from 2011 to 2023—reflects both a likely increase in survey questions and possibly a larger respondent base, indicating an expanding scope of data available for longitudinal analysis of well-being in the canton.
