Abstract: This paper describes the process and results of a questionnaire survey. The research objective was to determine whether the Czech population has interest in water management. The subject to the creation of the survey was the fact that one of the main objectives of water policy of the European Union, on which water policy of the Czech Republic is based, is the need to increase public awareness of water issues and their involvement in the decision making process. The partial objective was to determine whether there is a difference in interest between those living in the countryside and those living in the city. In this paper a method of quantitative data collection - a questionnaire survey was used. The results show that people have interest in water management. There are no differences between the views of people who live in rural areas and those who live in the city. Great interest is in water supply and related development of water supply and sewerage systems.
