Description
Jaroslava Zimmermann and Ibrahim Demirer study very old adults in Germany and their daily function. Their twenty twenty-four paper uses a national study of more than ten thousand people aged eighty and older. They ask whether poor areas harm the ability to do daily tasks, such as shopping or handling money. They also ask if trust in neighbors explains part of that link.
People who saw their area as hard to walk in, or in poor shape, had lower function. They also had lower trust in neighbors. Trust in turn linked to function, which fits the team's model. The authors say place and social trust both matter for late-life independence.
