This survey explored the swirling speculation about how Lopez businesses are doing. My personal favorite question, although not part of the survey, is: When will we have more than one restaurant for eat-in dining?

None of the opinions expressed in the survey are my own, as I did not take the survey. It was sent to all businesses on the Chamber of Commerce email list. The results compile the opinions of the 20 Lopez business owners who chose to participate.

One small informal survey can’t possibly answer the prime question of how our Lopez businesses are doing, but the answers beautifully express the full range of factors that have affected our island since the pandemic started.

Attached is a summary of the responses, as well as a link to the actual questions and results.
