Rather than a snapshot, we take s longer view than most. A longer view, we believe, paints a better and more worthwhile picture. We start from them most recent and go back as you scroll down.

Tip: Surveys happen throughout the year and you may want to check with the location or here to see if more recent data is available for St Louis Altenheim.

Since we bagan longer term (multi year tracking, numbers will naturally be higher than 3 (or so surverys).
