RESEARCH
Untitled Document David L. Brown, Professor of Development Sociology, and Nina Glasgow, Senior Research Associate, released a new book: Rural Retirement Migration. Their book examines the migration of older persons to rural retirement destinations in the United States. Brown and Glasgow pay particular attention to the process through which older in-migrants become socially integrated in their new communities, the social relationships they form, the nature of their civic engagement, and the positive and negative reactions they elicit from longer-term residents.
