Study: Worst and best cities for the disabled INLAND EMPIRE - (INT) - Two of the region's largest cities have scored among the nation's worst for people with disabilities.
WalletHub compared the 150 most populated cities across three key dimensions, including: 1) Economic Environment, 2) Quality of Life and 3) Health Care. When searching for a new city to call home, most people share a common list of priorities — affordability, jobs, schools and attractions among them. But people with disabilities often have a larger list of considerations. Factors such as the accessibility of various facilities, the quality of health care and even the cleanliness of the air can take precedence over others. Moreno Valley and San Bernardino ranked near the bottom at 147th and 148th. Rancho Cucamonga was near the top of the list at #15. It's economic environment raised it to Number 7 in the nation. California's other best cities for people with disabilities were Huntington Beach, Santa Clarita, Modesto and San Jose. Story Date: October 7, 2015
