What do New York City children have to say about their
neighborhoods? Neighborhood research, the body of work exploring
the link between the neighborhood context and residents' health,
has received increasing attention in recent years. Despite the
recent growth of neighborhood research, there has been surprisingly
little attention to what children themselves say about the
neighborhoods they live in. This study moves beyond traditional
research by examining children's views of their inner-city New York
City neighborhoods to inform on the neighborhood attributes most
important to them. The research then explores the relationship
between different neighborhood measurements (children's and
parents' evaluations of neighborhood conditions, census data, and
neighborhood observations by outside raters) and their association
with children's health. The study answers questions such as "what
is the relationship between subjective and objective neighborhood
measures" and "whose ratings of neighborhood characteristics matter
most to children's health." The book is directed towards scholars
and researchers in urban health, urban planning, child development,
and interdisciplinary studies.
