“…While it could be argued that subjective measures are unstable over time, are incomparable across individuals, and might not correlate with objective measures (McCrea et al, 2006;Veenhoven, 2007); subjective measures are important because they drive individual behaviour (Logan and Collver, 1983;Rabe and Taylor, 2010). Moreover, research has shown that people have the ability to rank local areas by socioeconomic status and that people from different income groups generally share the same general perception of neighbourhood status (Coleman and Neugarten, 1972;Hourihan, 1979;Semyonov and Kraus, 1982;Logan and Collver, 1983;Permentier et al, 2011). As such, we believe that the subjective indicators can be used as proxies for neighbourhood social status and we will henceforth refer to them as social status indicators.…”
