Abstract
⺠We challenge research on the health effects of neighbourhoods based on housing mobility programs and poverty dispersal. ⺠Poverty dispersal as a health promoting policy may produce unintended negative consequences. ⺠Municipal fragmentation, exclusionary planning, and urban competition are upstream factors that can produce health inequalities. ⺠Annexation, municipal consolidation, increased federal support, and tax-based sharing are novel social policies to address these upstream factors.
