This horizontal bar chart presents the results of a public survey conducted in Devon, asking respondents to rank the issues they consider most important. The chart is divided into ten horizontal bars, each representing a different group or dataset (labelled 1 through 10 on the left). Each bar is segmented by colour to show how many people in that group prioritized each issue.
🧩 Categories of Importance (Color-coded):
– More affordable housing – Dark green
– Better-maintained roads – Light green
– Improved public transport – Green
– Better services for children and young people – Blue
– Better services for older people – Lime green
– Looking after Devon’s environment – Green
– Improving public health – Dark blue
– A focus on education and schools – Teal
– Building safer communities – Orange
– Supporting Devon’s businesses – Bright blue

The X axis represents the priority order (from 1-10), and the Y axis the number of respondents (shown from 0 to 2500, going up in multiples of 250).

A summary of the key findings is described in the narrative summary section of the page, above the chart.
