Neighborhood residents with lowest incomes most likely to care about their communities
July 2, 2013 ? Some may assume that low-income residents of run-down, crime-ridden neighborhoods do not care about their communities. However, research from the University of Missouri suggests otherwise.
Mansoo Yu, an assistant professor of social work and public health at MU, studied levels of community care and vigilance among residents living in high-crime, low-income areas. Community care and vigilance refer to individuals' desires to improve their communities, to take pride in their neighborhoods and to monitor and report unwelcome happenings, such as crimes, near their homes.
"We hypothesized that individuals with higher incomes would have higher levels of community care and vigilance, but the opposite was true," Yu said. "Residents with lower incomes were more likely to care about their communities than their higher-earning neighbors."
Yu said he and his colleagues were somewhat surprised by the findings that lower-income residents cared more about their communities.
"One possibility is that, because these individuals had such low incomes, they were more likely to stay in the same area for a long time," Yu said. "Low-income residents might lack the resources to move to other communities, whereas their neighbors with relatively higher incomes might be more able to move to better neighborhoods with safer environments."
Yu said community workers and organizers as well as public health professionals should find ways for residents to develop pride in their neighborhoods and encourage them to take actions, such as volunteering, to improve their communities.
"Healthy local environments are related to overall well-being and good mental and physical health," Yu said. "Individuals tend to feel safer in their local communities when they have low levels of depression and high levels of self-esteem. More work is needed to improve low-income areas into healthy environments so individuals' well-beings can improve."

Kyra Sedgwick chops off fingertip cutting kale

Ah, kale. Trendy, healthy, delicious, and -- dangerous? According to two photos actor Kevin Bacon posted on celebrity social media site Who Say, the leafy green vegetable can also attack.

Kyra Sedgwick cut off the tip of her finger chopping kale, her husband Kevin Bacon posted on WhoSay.
"Kale isn't (ALWAYS) HEALTHY... if you chop the end of your finger off," Bacon wrote next to a photo of his wife, actress Kyra Sedgwick, on a hospital bed looking gloomy, and holding up a bloody, bandaged finger.
He later posted a photo of Sedgwick with an even more heavily bandaged finger, giving the thumbs-up with her uninjured hand. "My Baby is fine. All good. Still can't find the tip of that finger," Bacon wrote.
Sedgwick herself hasn't tweeted or posted about the event -- but then again, it can be difficult to type with a missing fingertip.
Bacon is currently starring on the Fox serial-killer drama "The Following," which will begin its second season in 2014.
