Quality of Life Survey 2011 [dataset]. Round 2. Version 1. Johannesburg: GCRO [producer], 2011. Cape Town: DataFirst [distributor], 2012. DOI: https://doi.org/10.25828/fskh-s266 v1: Edited, anonymised dataset shared under a CC-BY Attribution-only license South Africa The survey covers the Gauteng province in South Africa. The lowest level of geographic aggregation in the data is ward. Households and individuals The survey covers all adult residents in Gauteng, South Africa Sample survey data The Gauteng City-Region Observatory's Quality of Life Survey collects data on demographic details of the enumerated population (population group, gender, age, language) and on housing (dwelling type, tenure, satisfaction with dwelling, perceived quality of housing and housing allocation) as well as household services (water, sanitation, refuse, energy sources). Data was also collected on migration, health (including disability), education and employment (including employment sector). Data on community services and amenities was also collected, and on transport, leisure activities and safety and crime. Financial data was collected (including on debts, income, and social grants) and data on household assets. Data on public participation and governance was also collected during the survey. Finally, the survey collected data on the perceived personal wellbeing and quality of life of respondents. Data World Face-to-face [f2f] The survey instrument (questionnaire) which was used was provided by the GCRO. The instrument was similar to the questionnaire used for the initial Quality of Life survey, with new questions being added only where questions from the previous survey were removed. This was done with the intention of keeping the duration of the survey the same as the initial one. The survey instrument was a 20 page questionnaire, broken up into 12 sections. The bulk of the possible answers were pre-defined, such that most of the survey could be answered using a combination of tick-boxes or by writing down a number answer from a predefined set. To this end there are not many open - ended questions in the survey. The survey instrument was reformatted by Data World to ensure optimal flow, as well as to cater for the technology platform which was used to conduct the surveys. Fieldwork commenced on 15 August 2011. Initially there were 5 teams, consisting of 9 field workers and 1 team leader / supervisor per team. The teams generally were broken up 50:50 in ratio of male and female. The second fieldwork teams began on field on 01 September 2011, these were an additional 10 field workers, who were broken up into 2 teams of 5 each. The third fieldwork team began fieldwork on 17 October 2011. These were an additional 50 resources, which were broken up into 10 teams of 5 each. A set of “mop-up” teams was assembled by reassigning fieldworkers, as the major work began tapering off, to revisit wards and make up shortfalls in the number of required surveys as best as possible. The first mop-up teams (10 field workers) began in October 2011, with another 20 field workers conducting mop-ups from the November 2011. The bulk of the fieldwork was complete by the end of November 2011, with a few wards being visited in early December as initial visits, and mopping up going on until 15 December 2011.
