AnnotationThe author reviews gerontological research that highlights some of the issues facing older people living in urban areas. These include a sense of feeling trapped by urban decay, and crime and the fear of crime. Nurses can play their part by putting older people in touch with voluntary organisations, or in encouraging older people to adopt or maintain healthy lifestyles. (RH).
