Health and suburbanization -- Chapter 2: Linking suburban neighborhoods and human health: A social ecological perspective -- Chapter 3: An empirical survey on the health performance of suburban residents in Guangzhou -- Chapter 4: Neighborhood factors associated with individual health: environmental and behavioral pathways -- Chapter 5: Health promotion opportunities and challenges: suburban housing development and people-environment transactions -- Chapter 6: Towards healthy suburban settlements.  aThis book aims to formulate recommendations for achieving a healthy neighborhood living environment for the middle-income people in China‘s suburbs. In China, the expeditious urbanization triggers the prosperous commodity housing development, which further grows with the spatial restructuring and socioeconomic transition. Residential suburbanization is generated, accompanied with the emergence of new-middle class and the change of lifestyle. However, the health effects of suburbanization in China are overlooked. This book investigates the health performance of suburban residents and the effects of suburban living on residents‘ health. This book also examines the resident-environment transaction modes to unfold the underlying mechanism of suburban living affecting residents’ health. Suburban residents had to passively adapt to their residential environment, which is the obstacle for achieving a health-promoting environment. The institutional dynamics determining the health performance of suburban living environment were addressed with the roles of governments, developers, planners, housing managers, residents‘ committee, and ordinary residents in commodity housing development. The book found no institutional support for the creation of health-promoting environments, especially with default of governments and excessive dependence on developers for public service facilities and the absence of civil society. Thus, the book proposes that institutional innovations are necessary in term of embedding the health dimension in all sectors of the society, enlisting collaboration between public and private sectors, and between health and non-health sectors, and thus cultivating the optimization of residents-environment transactions to create health-promoting environments. 0aGeography.962292 0aWell-being.959309 0aPublic health.96131214aRegional Geography.96645124aWell-Being.95930924aPublic Health.9613122 aSpringerLink (Online service)0 tSpringer Nature eBook08iPrinted edition:z978981971206908iPrinted edition:z978981971208308iPrinted edition:z9789819712090 0aUrban Sustainability,x2731-649196935040uhttps://doi.org/10.1007/978-981-97-1207-6  aZDB-2-EES  aZDB-2-SXEE  c59562d59562
