It's the seventh year Virginia Tech researchers have done their annual Quality of Life survey.
And they say they're learning two things: Virginians enjoy a pretty high quality of life, AND their minds are mostly made up on issues politicians continue to debate.
The survey of 726 Virginians conducted in March of this year was just released today.
Among the highlights:
(----------------)

Seventy-seven percent favor continuing sex education in public schools.
Seventy percent still support a woman's right to have an abortion.
On the death penalty, 75 percent favor it, down from 80 percent last year.
Then, when given an alternative of life in prison with NO possible parole for 25 years, combined with restitution to the victim's family, 56 percent of Virginians preferred it to execution.
More Virginians feel it is safe to walk alone in their neighborhood at night this year over last year.
Thirty-seven percent say it's "very safe" -- up five percent from the year before.
