1: 1.5 – 20 minutes average daily exposure | 0.75 (0.47, 1.02) | 2.11 (1.60, 2.77) | < 0.001 |
2: > 20 minutes average daily exposure | 1.55 (1.13, 1.97) | 4.72 (3.09, 7.20) | < 0.001 |

Mean neighborhood NDVId | 0.13 (−0.27, 0.53) | 1.14 (0.77, 1.70) | 0.51 |
n = 208 subjects.
Gender significant in both models. Income significant in model 1. Age significant in model 2. Race, BMI, the community design variable, and the community design interaction with the greenness variables were not significant in either model.
30-second epochs with NDVI > 90th percentile of dataset values were classified as a “greener space”.
Negative NDVI 30×30m pixel values primarily representing water were reassigned to 0, then mean NDVI was calculated for all 30×30m pixels within 500m buffers around geocoded residential addresses. For the regression model neighborhood mean NDVI values were rescaled by dividing by the 10–90th quantile range of these values.
