Urbanicity,Urbanization,and the Urban Environment
Urban living and urbanization can have substantial influence on health and disease among urban populations.Evaluating the cross-national role of urbanicityalone as a construct has limited utility in illuminating the pathways throughwhich urban living can impact health.Investigating the way in which the processof urbanization together with features of the urban environment affect health canhelp to elucidate these pathways and thus provide potential targets for publichealth interventions and governmental policies.Recent empirical research hasbegun to evaluate the independent associations between specific characteristics ofthe social environment and health within specific cities.Much more work willneed to be done to establish cross-national comparisons that may enable us todraw conclusions that are generalizable across cities and across countries.
It is important to consider that the specific features of the urban environment donot exist in a vacuum.In other words,the interactions between the physical environment,urban resource infrastructure,and the social environment are important.Theprocess of urbanization then intersects with the urban environment at any one pointin time through demographic change and changes in land use,availability,and the
impact on agriculture and natural resources.Additionally,regional,national andinternational politics,events and governance can have substantial impact on thefeatures of the urban environment.Moving forward,investigations into the natureof the interactions between these macro-level determinants of health may offer newunderstanding of how urban living shapes the health of populations and maysuggest avenues for potential intervention.
