Who are the people in my neighborhood? Race, scale, and the search for contextual effects

Chris Fowler
Penn State University


Abstract:
Where we live and work can have measurable impacts on health, income, education, and a whole host of other individual characteristics. That location matters is arguably the fundamental premise of geographic thought. Yet identifying the nature and magnitude of contextual effects remains an elusive proposition. This talk works through three areas of uncertainty with regard to contextual effects: have we appropriately interpreted what a given context means, have we have assigned the 'right' context, and what processes can we theorize that connect a given context to a given individual? Throughout the talk I use examples drawn from research on segregation and diversity at the neighborhood scale in Seattle Washington.
Papers serving as the basis for this talk:
1. Who are the People in my Neighborhood?: The “Contextual Fallacy” of Measuring Individual Context with Census Geographies CS Fowler, N Frey, DC Folch, N Nagle, S Spielman (2019) Geographical Analysis<https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/abs/10.1111/gean.12192>
