Patch Poll: Has The ICE Surge In Minnesota Made You Feel Safer Or Less Safe?

MINNESOTA — As federal immigration agents continue an unprecedented enforcement surge across Minnesota, Patch is asking residents a simple question: How has the increased ICE presence affected how safe you feel?

Patch has launched a short public safety survey to gather firsthand perspectives from Minnesotans across the state on how the recent massive influx of ICE agents is shaping daily life, community trust, and perceptions of safety.

The survey asks respondents whether the surge has made them feel safer, less safe, or has had little impact, and includes an optional section for residents to share personal stories or observations from their communities.

The survey is open to all Minnesota residents and takes less than two minutes to complete.

Patch is also inviting residents who want to share more detailed experiences to reach out directly to william.bornhoft@patch.com.
