New Cityscape Highlights Aging in Place

Research AgendaThe research symposium in PD&R's newest issue of Cityscape: A Journal of Policy Development and Research: (Volume 12, Number 2) examines aging in place models that effectively link older residents of assisted housing to supportive services. The collected studies focus on the need for rigorous evaluation of models of aging in place on which to build (Stephen M. Golant, Pamela Parsons, and Peter A. Boling), the expansion of a successful New York City-based model of housing and supportive services to Los Angeles (Susan Enguidanos, Jon Pynoos, Maria Siciliano, Laura Diepenbrock, and Susan Alexman), the lack of empirical research on what services older adults in subsidized housing need (Victoria Cotrell and Paula C. Carder), the importance of baseline data collection for effective service targeting (Fredda Vladeck, Rebecca Segel, Mia Oberlink, Michal D. Gursen, and Danylle Rudin), and the aging in place community and informal networks of family caregivers (Alisha Sanders, Robyn Stone, Rhoda Meador, and Victoria Parker).

The new Cityscape issue also features refereed research by Anupam Nanda and Katherine A. Pancak, "Real Estate Brokers’ Duties to Their Clients: Why Some States Mandate Minimum Service Requirements," and by William P. McCarty, “Trailers and Trouble? An Examination of Crime in Mobile Home Communities.” Other articles are the "Recovery Act of 2009—Public Housing Capital Fund: Obligations and Number of Jobs by ZIP Code" by Todd W. NcNeil and "Using the Health and Retirement Study To Analyze Housing Decisions, Housing Values, and Housing Prices" by Hugo Benítez-Silva, Selçuk Eren, Frank Heiland, and Sergi Jiménez-Martín.
