2 Health is related to income differences within rich societies but not to those between them Within societiesBetween (rich) societies Source: Wilkinson & Pickett, The Spirit Level (2009) Most deprived www.equalitytrust.org.uk

3 Life expectancy and income inequality: Brazil, 2000

5 Increasing income inequality in Brazil and India Increasing spatial inequality in poverty and income - urbanisation and concentration of economic activity - spatial concentration of affluence reproduces privileges of the rich - spatial concentration of poverty results in segregation, involuntary clustering in ghettos Effects on Individual and Population Health? “Triple health jeopardy: being poor in a poor neighbourhood that is spatially isolated from life-enhancing opportunities…” Nancy A Ross

6 Dimensions of spatial segregation Sean F. Reardon & David O'Sullivan. “Measures of Spatial Segregation” Sociological Methodology. V. 34, n.1, p. 121-162, 2004 EVENNESS CLUSTERING EXPOSURE ISOLATION

7 SPATIAL EXPOSURE INDEX SPATIAL ISOLATION INDEX Average proportion of group n in the localities of each member of group m Average proportion of group m in the local environments of each member of group m (spatial exposure of group m to itself) EXPOSURE/ISOLATION DIMENSION

8 SPATIAL NEIGHBOURHOOD SORTING INDEX Proportion of the variance between the different localities that contributes to the total variance of the variable X in the city EVENNESS/ CLUSTERING DIMENSION GENERALIZED SPATIAL DISSIMILARITY INDEX Average difference of the population composition of the localities from the population composition of the urban area as a whole

9 Key hypotheses: Districts, cities and states with less spatial socioeconomic inequalities have better population health than areas with greater spatial socioeconomic inequalities For a given level of income/socioeconomic position, people living in areas with less spatial socioeconomic inequalities have better health than those living in more segregated areas. Methods: Brazil Data (for the 25 largest cities): Demographic and Socioeconomic data: 2000 Census (census tract level) Mortality data: SIM Mortality Information System (district level data) India Data: Demographic and Socioeconomic data: 2001 census (sub-district Tehsil level) Mortality data: District Level Household and Facilities Survey 2002-04 and 2007-08 (Individual and district level)

10 Dimensions of spatial segregation EVENNESS CLUSTERING EXPOSURE ISOLATION

11 Spatial CLUSTERING INDEX Moran Scatter Plot SLOPE OF THE REGRESSION LINE Spatially lagged variable Variable to be lagged, standardized Moran Cluster Map

12 Spatial CLUSTERING INDEX Within each district, the Spatial Clustering Index is the proportion of census tracts that are low income tracts and are surrounded by other low income tracts.
