Model I was adjusted for age only; Model II was adjusted for age and race; Model III included spatial accessibility score, socioeconomic score, age and race.

*

Higher spatial accessibility and less deprivation were set as references;

a

: shortest travel time (minutes);

b

: average travel time to the nearest five facilities (minutes);

c

: service density;

d

: spatial accessibility index from the model without weighting parameter;

e

: spatial accessibility index from the model with continuous weighting parameter;

f

: spatial accessibility index from the zonal weighted model with 3 time zones and quick decay weighting;

g

: spatial accessibility index from the zonal weighted model with 3 time zones and slow decay weighting;

h

: spatial accessibility index from the zonal weighted model with 6 time zones and quick decay weighting;

i

: spatial accessibility index from the zonal weighted model with 6 time zones and slow decay weighting.
