Authors:Crimmins E; Ailshire J. Pages: 1 - 2 Abstract: This issue highlights research on the multilayered geographic and policy contexts that impact aging across the United States. Articles range in focus from federal, state, and local policies to local programs and the broad environmental contexts in which people age in place. This collection of articles emphasizes the disparate impacts of policies and local contexts on aging, paying particular attention to healthy aging in vulnerable populations (e.g. minority, low-income, rural, and immigrant populations). These articles are coauthored by teams of scientists who span a range of fields represented in the Behavioral and Social Sciences Section of The Gerontological Society of America (e.g., sociology, economics, epidemiology, gerontology).
