Create and implement surveys to Gage the Flint Neighborhood of Fall River, Massachusetts and the South End of New Bedford. This is a ten year study under the guise of professors from Massachusetts Institute of Technology and the Conservation Law Foundation. The Conservation Law Foundation (CLF) received a two year planning grant from the Robert Wood Johnson Foundation to collect baseline data and design a longitudinal research study that will measure the impact of environmental conditions, particularly mixed-income, mixed-use, transit oriented real estate development (“TOD”) projects, on health in a variety of Massachusetts neighborhoods. The research study will track environmental conditions and health in neighborhoods targeted for investment in such TOD projects compared to environmental conditions and health in control neighborhoods with similar demographics, built environments and health outcome characteristics over a five- to ten-year period. The study will track neighborhood changes across multiple domains to include economic, social, behavioral, environmental, and health outcome indicators. Taken together, these indicators can help predict and track neighborhood change over time, and provide important new insights about the connections between the built environment, opportunity, behavior, and health. The study will utilize a longitudinal, mixed method design, drawing on health data and resident’s experiences to understand how development impacts health.
