This will be of interest to those interested in community health promotion, healthy
public policy, and urban issues.

The Urban Quality Indicators Newsletter is an unbelievably well put-together and
up-to-date compendium of current work on "Measuring and evaluating your
community's quality."  It is a real delight to read [and really relevant].

It is published quarterly out of Ann Arbor. The last four issues have focused on:

Neighbourhood indicators
Measuring the new urbanism
Post-materialist indicators
Sustainable Seattle

The next issue, Winter 1998, is focusing on Quality of Life and Indicators Work in
Canada.

Subscription rates are $US 29.00 a year in Canada and the USA.  For more
information (maybe even a free issue) contact: the editor Cy Yoakam.
