Harnett County invites all residents to participate in the 2025 Community Survey. This survey allows community members to share their thoughts and feedback on the County’s strengths, challenges and resident priorities. This is the first time that the County has conducted a comprehensive community-wide Resident Engagement Survey.
The 2025 Community Survey will help the County to create a clear roadmap for the future of Harnett County, ensuring that the County and community move forward together in one direction with shared goals. The results will help to guide strategic priorities and future decision-making.
“I encourage all residents to take a few minutes to participate in this survey. Your feedback is vital. The results will help us better understand how our community feels about the services we provide, what we are doing well, where we can improve, and what priorities we should focus on moving forward. Let your voice be heard,” said Harnett County Communications & Marketing Director Desiree Patrick in a press release.
Residents can complete the survey online here or pick up a paper copy at any Harnett County public library branch or at the Resource Center and Library. Completed paper surveys should be returned to the County Manager's Office.
Please submit your paper or online survey no later than Monday, Dec. 22, 2025.
Harnett County has collaborated with ETC Institute to administer the Community Survey. ETC has randomly selected over 500 households across the County to receive mailed versions of the survey, which will arrive in early December. Recipients are encouraged to complete and return their survey by following the instructions that are provided in the envelope. Once individuals receive their mailed survey, we are asking those individuals to return within two weeks of receipt.
All survey responses are anonymous.
For questions regarding the survey, contact the County Manager’s Office at (910) 893-7555.

Big T’s has been a local favorite of Hope Mills since 2000 when Timmy (Big T) and Donna Gray first opened right on Hope Mills Lake. It is a seasonal restaurant, so many of Big T’s loyal customers were happy to hear they would now be open year-round, seven days a week.
