This article presents the results of a survey applied in a neighborhood of Casas Grandes, Chihuahua, in the north of Mexico, in the framework of a work of social diagnosis and community intervention carried out during 2017. The purpose is to present the experience of the application of this quantitative data collection instrument and its analysis, in order to identify areas of intervention, in the context of the social and economic development of the region that has as its epicenter the archaeological zone of Paquimé, near to the community and the most important in the north of the country. The results of the analysis of the data obtained in three sections are presented: characteristics and welfare conditions of the settlers, availability and interest for social promotion projects and representations of the development context. The work aims to illustrate the methodology and the descriptive statistical analysis, in the context of community social work. The possible contributions of the results of this survey to the integral diagnosis of the community are highlighted, which contemplates other qualitative and quantitative data collection techniques.
