Abstract:

This monograph is a rich source of demographic data specifically in relation to persons with disabilities. It tells the age, the type of disability, when and why they leave home, and their mode of transportation when they do. Using these statistics, planners may better understand the needs of a neighborhood when policy issues arise.
