This article compares health status between internal migrants and urban natives in Shanghai, China and examines neighborhood effects on self-rated health, chronic conditions, and psychological well-being. Migrants on average exhibit better health than natives in Shanghai. Neighborhood satisfaction, social cohesion and safety show strong association with health after controlling for individual factors. However, these associations tend to be weaker for migrants than for natives in Shanghai. Income, perceived stress, and neighborhood social cohesion jointly explain about 26% of the link between neighborhood satisfaction and an index of overall well-being. Among individual-level SES indicators, income is more strongly linked to self-rated health than education and occupation. Relative to SES indicators, perceived loneliness and stress are more directly associated with health. Study limitations and future research direction are discussed in the end.
这篇文章比较了中国上海的国内移民和城市本地居民的健康状况，并研究了邻里效应对自评健康、慢性疾病和心理健康的影响。平均而言，移民在上海的健康状况要好于本地人。在控制了个人因素后，邻里满意度、社会凝聚力和安全感与健康有很强的关联。然而，与上海本地居民相比，这些关联对移民的作用较弱。收入、感知压力和邻里社会凝聚力共同解释了邻里满意度与整体幸福感指数之间约 26%的联系。在个体社会经济地位指标中，收入与自评健康的关系比教育和职业更为密切。与社会经济地位指标相比，孤独感和压力感与健康更为直接相关。最后讨论了研究的局限性和未来的研究方向。
