Survival in Relocation

Abstract
Mortality rates were compared between older healthy community residents who relocated voluntarily to new apartment complexes and control group residents who did not so relocate. In addition, actuarial-type data were compared between relocators who lived and those who died within I year following the move. Evidence in the present study does not suggest that the lives of elderly people are shortened by the stress of such relocation.
