Area of Science:

  • Urbanization and Public Health
  • Environmental Psychology
  • Epidemiology

Background:

  • Over half the global population resides in urban areas, a trend expected to continue.
  • Urban environments present unique challenges, including higher population density, noise, and pollution.
  • Despite challenges, cities offer improved access to healthcare and amenities.

Purpose of the Study:

  • To review risk factors for mental illness in urban settings.
  • To synthesize current understanding of urban mental health challenges.

Main Methods:

  • A selective literature search was conducted.
  • The review provides an overview of identified risk factors.

Main Results:

  • Cities show a higher risk for serious mental illness compared to rural areas.
  • Growing up and living in urban environments is linked to increased schizophrenia risk.
  • Poverty, social isolation, and neighborhood deprivation contribute to mental health burdens, with limited understanding of built environment interactions.

Conclusions:

  • Further research is needed on the interplay between neighborhood resources and socio-ecological factors.
  • Interdisciplinary collaboration is essential for understanding urban mental health determinants.
