Last week we conducted a survey of small business owners and 56 percent said this quarter (Jan.-March) was better than the same quarter last year. And more than 69 percent of the 82 business owners that answered the survey said they expect business will be better in the next 12 months.
We now want to know how our other Patch readers are faring in this economy. (This poll is being shared on the following Patch sites: South End, Back Bay, Beacon Hill, Charlestown, Somerville, Medford, Malden, Melrose, Stoneham, and Wakefield.)
Please let us know by answering these four questions:
Are you feeling the pinch in this economy or are things getting better?
Tell us in the comments.

Should have a poll on the city.

Michael, how do you mean? We're soliciting feedback from city residents, so this is supposed to be a reflection of the city.

I know what your doing. I'm saying poll the city on city issues too. I'm curious on how people feel on that matter also.

Good idea Michael. In fact, we do that from time to time. Please let us know if you have any specific polls in mind for Malden (this article is being shared with several other Patch sites too.).
