Toleration to selected groups of population

In March 2012 Public Opinion Research Centre focused on social distance among the major population and different social groups. Social distance was measured by a specific question: people should pick from a list of 15 different groups those, which they would not like to have as neighbours. The biggest distance was noticed towards drug addicts (86 % of Czechs would not want them to be their neighbours), people addicted to alcohol (78%), people with criminal past (74%), and also people with mental disease (63%).

Another question was focused on opinion about the society that means whether people think the Czech society is tolerant or intolerant to the same groups of people.
