ABSTRACT
Oxford Houses (OH) are democratically run, self-funded, substance-use recovery homes that operate across the United States and internationally. Previous research shows the OHs are present in diverse neighborhoods. The current study examined the neighborhoods of 42 OHs located in Oregon, Texas, and North Carolina to better quantify and understand house and neighborhood characteristics that are related to relapse rates. Independent variables were participants' length of stay in OH, wages earned from employment, and income/education neighborhood characteristics. Neighborhood characteristics were related to relapse rates, with higher relapse rates occurring in neighborhoods with lower income and education levels. This finding supports the OH organization's premise that while OHs may work across community settings, they perform better in neighborhoods with higher average income and education levels.
