We offer a baseline of Belizean opinions on these four areas of public goods/services with a focus on six demographic factors—age, gender, district residence, educational attainment, race/ethnicity, and monthly household income—affecting public opinion. We find that most Belizeans are dissatisfied with the condition of the streets, roads, and highways and the quality of public medical and health services. Alternatively, we find that a large majority of Belizeans are satisfied with the provision of water services and schools. We find public opinion differences among Belizeans by age, gender, education, education and income, but not by district residence or race/ethnicity. We contextualize and discuss these results.  University of Belize 2025-03-20 info:eu-repo/semantics/article info:eu-repo/semantics/publishedVersion Peer-reviewed Article application/pdf https://jobr.ub.edu.bz/index.php/ubrj/article/view/64 Journal of Belizean Research; Vol. 3 No. 1 (2025): Journal of Belizean Research eng https://jobr.ub.edu.bz/index.php/ubrj/article/view/64/33 Copyright (c) 2025 Journal of Belizean Research https://creativecommons.org/licenses/by-sa/4.0
