Y1 - 2022 N1 - T2 - Maxcy-Rosenau-Last Public Health & Preventive Medicine, 16e AB - The neighborhoods where we live, work, shop, and socialize can influence our health outcomes and health behaviors. In this chapter, we will discuss evidence suggesting that neighborhoods can influence a wide range of health outcomes and health behaviors. Here, as Duncan and Kawachi do in their recent textbook on the topic, we defined “neighborhoods” as “geographical places that can have social and cultural meaning to residents and nonresidents alike and are subdivisions of large places” (p. 1).1 The purpose of the current chapter is to provide an overview of select methodological and substantive areas in the field of neighborhoods and health research.
