ABSTRACTCurrent research suggests that gentrification is an important determinant of health. Furthermore, this research concludes that the health impacts of gentrification are heterogeneous and may have adverse impacts on Black Americans. However, existing gentrification and health research has not fully engaged with the racialized processes that produce these uneven impacts. To address this gap, we develop a conceptual framework to describe how gentrification may create unique experiences and differentiated health impacts for Black Americans. Applying a lens of racial capitalism, we examine how an ongoing legacy of structurally racist urban and housing policy in the United States has disinvested from and devalued Black communities; thereby rendering them vulnerable to subsequent reinvestment through gentrification. Next, we consider how this history creates unique health vulnerabilities to gentrification for Black residents. Finally, we describe pathways of displacement—physical and symbolic—through which these unique health vulnerabilities are shaped to produce differences in health.KEYWORDS: Gentrificationhealth disparitiesraceneighborhoods AcknowledgmentsThe authors would like to thank Dr. Derek Hyra, Dr. Melody Tulier, Emma Tran, and Marie-Fatima Hyacinthe for their helpful comments and suggestions.Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationFundingSupport for Shannon Whittaker, MPH was provided by predoctoral fellowships funded by the National Institute of Mental Health under grant number T32MH020031 and the National Institute on Minority Health and Health Disparities under grant number 1F31MD017129-01A1.

While the importance of residential moves and neighborhood context for children is widely recognized, few studies examine childhood mobility and neighborhood context together and over time. Using a typology of mobility trajectories based on frequency, age, distance and change in population density, this study analyzes the interrelatedness between mobility trajectories and socioeconomic neighborhood composition throughout childhood. Using full-population register data, we follow children born in the Netherlands in 1999 until age 16. Local spatial autocorrelation analyses reveal concentrations of childhood mobility and neighborhood deprivation in cities. Focusing on children born in metropolitan areas, results indicate that children born in deprived neighborhoods are more likely to experience any move. Short-distance moves are associated with increased exposure and long-distance moves with less exposure to neighborhood deprivation. We argue we need a multidimensional longitudinal perspective to fully capture residential contexts to which children are exposed and enhance knowledge of childhood accumulations of disadvantage.

ABSTRACTUsing Charlotte, North Carolina as a case study, we compare the housing and neighborhood choices of out-of-town movers compared to locals. Out-of-town movers, defined as those relocating from more than 200 miles, prompt our analysis of whether external population pressures were distributed evenly throughout the city. We leverage a unique combination of data sources, including neighborhood ”quality of life” indicators from a web-based dashboard and property advertisement text from the Multiple Listing Service. Our findings highlight distinct characteristics of homes and neighborhoods with a higher proportion of out-of-town movers: excellent public schools, single-family homes with upscale kitchens, and fitness amenities. Neighborhoods have a population of highly educated, White residents. In contrast, neighborhoods that are more pedestrian-friendly, bicycle-accessible, or close to public transit and require property renovations tend to attract fewer out-of-town movers. This analysis reveals the unequal demand experienced by high-opportunity neighborhoods in a fast-growing city during the pandemic.KEYWORDS: Residential location choiceneighborhood amenitiesreal estate Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Notes1.

摘要本文以北卡罗来纳州夏洛特市为例,比较了外地人和本地人对住房和社区的选择。外来迁入者的定义是那些从200英里以外的地方迁入的人,他们促使我们分析外部人口压力是否在整个城市均匀分布。我们利用独特的数据源组合,包括来自基于网络的仪表板的社区“生活质量”指标和来自Multiple Listing Service的房产广告文本。我们的研究结果突出了外地人比例较高的家庭和社区的鲜明特征:优秀的公立学校,拥有高档厨房的独户住宅,以及健身设施。社区里有很多受过高等教育的白人居民。相比之下,那些更适合步行、更适合骑自行车、或靠近公共交通、需要翻修房屋的社区,往往会吸引更少的外地人。这一分析揭示了在大流行期间,一个快速发展的城市的高机会社区所经历的不平等需求。关键词:居住区位选择;社区设施;房地产披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。注意,在我们的分析中,比率变量是根据移动到每个社区的距离来计算的,显示夏洛特中心的地图仅供参考。elizabeth C.

ABSTRACTIn this article, we study neighborhood preferences among residents of highly diverse, lower income suburban neighborhoods in Toronto, Ontario. By extending the typical application of conjoint designs to the urban domain, we show techniques for measuring place alienation—a sense of disconnection from place—and its impact on neighborhood satisfaction. We find that residents in lower SES neighborhoods share many of the same priorities as residents in higher SES neighborhoods when it comes to safety, transit, school quality, neighborliness, public spaces, and building types. However, differences appear across a range of preferences including bike usage, local commercial spaces, and cultural and recreation facilities. When considering place alienation and neighborhood satisfaction, we find a consistent, robust inverted relationship—as place alienation decreases, neighborhood satisfaction increases. Moreover, this relationship is not mitigated by socioeconomic factors, neighborhood conditions, or even attitudinal and experiential factors. We end with suggestions for future research.KEYWORDS: NeighborhoodssatisfactionCanadasuburbanresidential preferences AcknowledgmentsThis study was generously supported by the School of Cities at the University of Toronto and the Wellesley Institute.

摘要本文研究了安大略省多伦多市高度多元化的低收入郊区居民的邻里偏好。通过将联合设计的典型应用扩展到城市领域,我们展示了测量地点疏离感(一种与地点脱节的感觉)及其对社区满意度的影响的技术。我们发现,在安全、交通、学校质量、邻里关系、公共空间和建筑类型等方面,社会经济地位较低社区的居民与社会经济地位较高社区的居民有着许多相同的优先事项。然而,在自行车使用、当地商业空间、文化和娱乐设施等一系列偏好方面,存在差异。当考虑地方异化和邻里满意度时,我们发现了一个一致的、稳健的反向关系——随着地方异化的减少,邻里满意度增加。此外,这种关系不受社会经济因素、社区条件甚至态度和经验因素的影响。最后对未来的研究提出了建议。本研究得到了多伦多大学城市学院和韦尔斯利学院的慷慨支持。我们也要感谢多伦多居民对这项研究的时间和见解。披露声明作者未报告潜在的利益冲突。Lovejoy等人(Citation2010)讨论了新城市主义者的社区设计融合了“传统社区”的特征,“传统社区”指的是二战前美国建造的社区,密度适中,网格状街道模式,住宅和商业用地混合使用,独特的中心,以步行和交通为导向,而不是私家车。在战后时期,随着郊区化的兴起和对汽车所有权的依赖,许多这样的社区获得了成功。在我们研究的时候,有140个官方社区。多伦多市在20世纪90年代中期定义了这些服务,“通过提供有意义的地理范围内的社会经济数据,帮助政府和社区机构进行当地规划”(city of Toronto, n.d)。这样做的方法概述如下:https://www.toronto.ca/city-government/data-research-maps/neighbourhoods-communities/neighbourhood-profiles/about-toronto-neighbourhoods/。为了应对不同的人口变化,社区边界在2022年进行了更新,现在有158个。虽然我们的选择程序允许我们选择的社区近似于更广阔的内郊区的缩影,但结果可能会受到特定边界的影响。这是一个局限性,未来的研究将受益于考虑更广泛的区域样本。比较教育、年龄和住房类型的回应模式,发现了类似的一致模式,但存在以下细微差异:学士学位持有者更有可能重视公共交通和学校质量(学士学位和非学士学位持有者都非常重视学校质量;前者的效果更强一些)。相对于年轻人(18-33岁),中年人(35-65岁)受到安全的影响略大(尽管两组都受到这种治疗的强烈影响),而年轻人则没有受到住房类型的重大影响。“人们互相帮助”对老年人更有吸引力,就像住在一个以房子为主的社区一样(再次与年轻人相比)。这项工作得到了UTSC社会学暑期学者项目、城市学院、多伦多大学和韦尔斯利研究所的支持。daniel SilverDan Silver是多伦多大学的社会学教授。他在芝加哥大学社会思想委员会获得博士学位。Prentiss A.

Whiskey Sours, Steve Vanderheiden
ABSTRACTWe examine the 2021 collapse of the Texas electrical grid as a case study of vulnerabilities introduced by the commodification of energy systems. While theories of commodification do predict several of the observed impacts of this experiment in privatization and deregulation of public utilities, we attribute these impacts to a tendentious conception of “Texas-style” sovereignty that is not captured by existing accounts of energy justice. By supplementing existing conceptions of energy justice with an evolved conception of sovereignty, we hope to provide a more capacious and defensible normative foundation for energy systems than is available elsewhere, and one capable of diagnosing and avoiding the trappings of Texas-style energy ideals.KEYWORDS: Commodificationenergy justicesovereigntyresilience Disclosure statementNo potential conflict of interest was reported by the author(s).Additional informationNotes on contributorsWhiskey SoursWhiskey Sours is a PhD candidate at the University of Colorado Boulder. They work primarily on transgender theory & politics, and environmental political theory. Their work is guided by agreement with Ivan Illich in seeking to develop and promote the protection, use, and enjoyment of personal energy under personal control.
