    San Bernardino County 20COMMUNIT1Y 0 INDICATORS REPORT Welcome to the first edition of the San Bernardino County Community Indicators Report. As Chairman of the Board of Supervisors, it is my pleasure to present this report to you in an attempt to track key indicators of economic, social and environmental well-being. San Bernardino County has enjoyed years of steady, traditional economic growth. However, years of high expectations have been followed by the challenges and disappointments of becoming the focal point of our nation's economic difficulties. The dramatic shift that has occurred over the last few years has rippled through the county impacting its residents and workers. Measuring key health, social, education and economic indicators and evaluating the impacts of these changes, can provide a mechanism to target and address our most critical issues. The CIR is intended to provide citizens and stakeholders with information and analysis of key community indicators and governmental activities reflecting current conditions in the County. Modeled after community indicator reports published around the country, this report provides a timely framework to understand the County as a system and the relationship of key findings. The San Bernardino Board of Supervisors appreciates your interest and involvement in our County. This report represents only the beginning of the strategic planning process; a process that will improve the quality of life for all residents and something that I sincerely hope you will continue to be a part of. Sincerely,

Welch Clerk of the Board of Supervisors Chief Executive Officer Building and maintaining a healthy, vibrant, and livable community demands honest and repeated self-assessment. It requires constantly measuring the progress we are making toward the realization of our shared Countywide Vision. That is the purpose of the annual San Bernardino County Community Indicators Report. This 2014 report marks our fifth consecutive year of taking a hard look at our incredibly large and amazingly diverse county through the prisms of our economy, schools, healthcare, public safety, environment, and our overall quality of life. These are the interrelated and interdependent elements of the “complete county” our residents and investors want our community to become through the Vision process. The idea behind making this report an annual effort was to measure our performance and detect trends so that the community could assess and refine its efforts toward achieving the Countywide Vision. After five years, we can begin to see the progress we are making and where more work needs to be done. The good news is that the county’s foreclosure rate has dropped from 5 percent to 1 percent and the high school dropout rate has declined by 30 percent.

  • 2015 San Bernardino County Community Indicators Report
    Community Indicators Report 2015 Building and maintaining a prosperous, healthy, and livable community requires honest and repeated self- assessment. We must constantly measure the progress we are making toward the realization of our shared Countywide Vision. That is the purpose of this annual San Bernardino County Community Indicators Report. The 2015 report marks our sixth consecutive year of taking an objective look at our large and diverse county, specifically our economy, our schools, healthcare, public safety, environment, and our overall quality of life. These are the interrelated and interdependent elements of the “complete county” upon which our Vision is based. The idea behind making this report an annual effort is to measure our performance and detect trends so that the community can assess and refine its efforts toward achieving the Vision. After six years, we can see the progress we are making and where more work needs to be done. For example, the high school dropout rate has fallen seven percentage points since we began tracking it, and the number of high school graduates eligible for entrance to a University of California or California State University campus continues to grow. Unemployment remains on the decline, the recovery of the housing market is marching forward, and tourism employment in our county is higher than ever, with more than 50,000 jobs attributable to this industry. However, our national ranking as a good place to do business has declined, which could mean that the rest of the nation has not yet caught on to the great things happening in our county. We hope this report inspires government leaders, business people, community and faith-based organizations, and others to come together and discuss strategies that are working so we may work together to bring those strategies to scale to serve our entire county.
