Studied life satisfaction of urban and nonurban elderly Vermonters (N=1405). Results confirm that there are few significant objective differences, however, the nonurban felt subjectively that they were better off. Perceived evaluations of status were found to be better predictors of life satisfaction than objective measures. (Author)
