Building Common Ground Through Data: Insights on Vital Conditions in the IE (Online Companion Report)

The Inland Empire Community Foundation commissioned the UCR Center for Community Solutions to study well-being, belonging, and civic life across Riverside and San Bernardino counties using the Vital Conditions for Health and Well-Being framework. Drawing on a survey of 2,381 residents, the report focuses on Belonging & Civic Muscle and their connection to overall life satisfaction, supplemented by publicly available data on the other six vital conditions. Data sources include the American Community Survey, California Department of Education, and Bureau of Labor Statistics. This online companion to the report, prepared for the 2025 IECF Policy & Philanthropy Summit, offers detailed methodology, respondent demographics, and expanded analyses with additional visualizations. An appendix provides a full list of survey variables and complete faculty write-ups that were shortened in the printed report.
