Clayton, Gloria M.; And Others
International Journal of Aging and Human Development, v38 n1 p65-89 1994
Used data from Georgia Centenarian Study to examine differences between rural (n=18) and urban (n=66) centenarians across physical health, activities of daily living, mental health, and life satisfaction. Found higher levels of morale in rural residents and higher levels of functional health in urban elders. Findings demonstrated absence of robust differences in rural and urban centenarians.
