A new CNN Poll conducted by SSRS finds that 57% of Americans say the attacks impacted the way they live their life today, and 68% say the attacks had an impact on Americans' individual rights and freedoms.
While the share who say the attacks affected rights and freedoms has dropped in the last decade , the percentage who say 9/11 changed the way they live their lives today has held relatively steady over time.Five years after the attacks, in 2006, an AP-Ipsos survey found a 50-50 split over whether 9/11 affected the way Americans live their lives. By 2011, 57% said their lives had been impacted by the attacks in an AP-NORC poll, and 63% felt that way two years later.
Overall, about 1 in 5 say September 11 had a great deal of impact on their life today, while 37% say it was just some impact.

About half of Americans in the new poll say they rarely or never think about what happened on September 11.
