Note: All models adjust for individual age, race, education, income, marital status and survey year. Models include interaction terms between sex and the following variables: individual-level race, neighborhood racial isolation, and neighborhood physical disorder. Variables for disorder, park area, recreation centers, supermarkets, commercial parcels, and billboards are scaled so that a change of one unit represents an increase from the 25^th to the 75^th percentile (the inter-quartile range). Percent below poverty variable is scaled so that a change of one unit represents an increase of 10 percentage points. Population size is scaled so that one unit represents 1,000 persons.
