Abstract: This paper reports the main findings of an empirical study of relationships between socioeconomic status, material and meaningful dimensions of housing and home, and health status. Our objective is to investigate ways in which material and meaningful factors related to housing, in conjunction with other dimensions of the social environment, could operate to produce systematic inequalities in health status across social strata.
