Disorder and Decay

The Concept and Measurement of Perceived Neighborhood Disorder

John Mirowsky

The Ohio State University

The scale of neighborhood disorder has high reliability, external validity, and shows interesting distinctions, and overlaps between physical and social disorder. It also shows that order and disorder are two ends of a single continuum.
