A new survey of more than 2,800 U.S. apartment residents indicates that 84 percent of respondents say living in sustainable/green homes is important to them and 85 percent believe living in sustainable/green homes is beneficial to their health. In its first AMLI Sustainable Living Index, AMLI surveyed residents on their views regarding sustainability and green living.

The Survey of Amli residents was conducted in August 2017 at properties in Atlanta, Austin, Chicago, Dallas, Denver, Houston, Seattle, Southern California and Southeast Florida. AMLI designed the survey to help it understand its residents’ interest in sustainable Living. AMLI will use the survey results to advance its sustainability efforts and enhance its residents’ living experiences. Roughly 12 percent of the 2,812 respondents were younger than age 25, 47 percent were ages 25-34, 16 percent were ages 35-44, and the remaining 25 percent were 45 or older.
