Rankings are based on an analysis of data from 2 groups of factors: Environmental Factors (Pollen Level Score) and Medical Factors (Prescription Score and Allergists Score). Weights were applied to each group of factors to reflect the relative importance as an indicator of how it affects quality of life of allergy sufferers.
If you have questions or would like more information about the 2003 Fall Allergy Capitals™ contact the Asthma and Allergy Foundation of America at info@aafa.org or call toll-free 1-800-727-8462.
