WalletHub recently conducted a study of the most disability-friendly cities in the U.S.
Analysts compared the economy, quality of life and healthcare costs of the 150 most populated cities in the country using a data set of 25 key metric ranges, including "employment rate for people with disabilities" and "number of wheelchair-accessible trails per capita."
Each metric was graded on a 100-point scale. Overall scores for each state were calculated using the weighted average across all metrics.
Here are the 10 best cities to live in for people with disabilities, based on overall disability accommodation scores.
