DUBUQUE, Iowa — November 7, 2026 — Dubuque County residents are being asked to weigh in on the health of their community through a new online survey — and it takes about five minutes.

The Dubuque County Community Health Survey asks residents how they and their families are doing, what gets in the way of staying healthy, and what the county’s biggest health concerns are. The answers will be used to learn more about the health of people across Dubuque County.

The survey covers a wide range of topics. It asks residents to rate their overall health, say whether they get yearly physical and dental exams, and where they go for health care. It asks about brain and emotional health, and what barriers keep people from getting help when they need it.

It also asks residents to name the top health concerns, biggest health problems, and high-risk behaviors they see — first for children and teens, then for adults. Other questions cover environmental problems in the community, how prepared households are for emergencies, and whether people have had trouble getting food, housing, care, or prescriptions.

The survey is anonymous. It does not ask for a name, phone number, or email address, and answers are combined with everyone else’s. Any question can be skipped.

It takes around 3 to 5 minutes to complete, and the age questions start at 18, so it is aimed at adult residents of Dubuque County.

No deadline is listed on the survey page, and the form itself does not name a sponsoring organization or give a contact. Residents who want to take part can find the survey at the link below.
