What is this Indicator?
This indicator shows the percentage of the adult population that are limited in any activities because of physical, mental, or emotional problems. |
| Why this is important: According to the National Disability Institute, enduring poverty and chronic underemployment are major problems facing the 20 million families who have at least one member with a disability. According to the 2000 Census data, 24.4 percent of people between the ages of 5 and 64 have a disability. Thirty-eight percent of working age adults with disabilities live in households with annual incomes of under $15,000 and 30 percent do not have either checking or savings accounts. |
| Technical Note: The regional value is compared to the California state value. |
