National Coral Reef Monitoring Program: Socioeconomic surveys of human use, knowledge, and perceptions in the United States Virgin Islands (USVI) from 2025-02-20 to 2025-04-28 (NCEI Accession 0307287)
The data in this file come from a survey of adult residents in USVI. The survey was conducted for a random stratified sample of households on the islands of St. Thomas, St. John, and St. Croix from February 20 to April 28, 2025. These data are the second round of data collection assessing USVI residents’ socioeconomic characteristics, human use patterns, and knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions of coral reefs and coral reef management. These data are also used to compare changes in USVI residents’ socioeconomic characteristics since the first round of monitoring that occurred in 2017 in USVI. Data were collected through a face to face interview method or the option to complete an online form, and the total sample size for completed surveys was 624 respondents. Survey weights were created to adjust for the sample design and non-response, and then calibrated using 2020 US Census data so that the weighted dataset is representative of USVI’s resident population.
