All housing variables were included in the multivariate models. Control variables significantly (p < 0.05) associated with change in PHS and MHS only were included in the regression models. Depression was excluded from the MHS regression multivariate model due to multicollinearity

Bold indicates statistical significance (p < 0.05)
