Each of the following, if true, contributes to an explanation of the difference in health between these two groups EXCEPT:
People who have the means to relocate tend to be in better-than-average health.
Although most people who have moved into the community are young, most people who have lived in the community all their lives are elderly.
The quality of health care available to the community is lower than that for the rest of the country.
Changes in one's environment tend to have a beneficial effect on one's health.
People in good health are more likely to move to new communities than are people in poor health.
