We just returned from a long weekend in North Myrtle Beach SC. Forty blocks of Resort Hotels, hotels, motels and home rentals lining both sides of the street. I can't imagine the number of people in this 'small' area. During the weekend, I saw on person using a wheelchair and another with a visible limp. That was it. Where are the people with disabilities? One census number notes that there are 17.2 million adults that have difficulty walking. They may or may not need a wheelchair, walker, crutch, or cane. We only saw one other person!
This lack of people with clearly apparent mobility impairments enjoying this resort area makes me wonder where the heck are they? Second to that, why would municipalities and businesses put forth effort and finances to make the area accessible if no one is utilizing the area??
Whaddya think?
