Note. T1 = time point 1 (baseline); T2 = time point 2 (12 mo after moving); T3 = time point 3 (36 mo after moving). We derived the z-score from standardized values.
Count of different types of services: dry cleaner, post office, pharmacy, CD, DVD, or video store within 1600 m.
Count of different types of convenience goods: deli, general store, supermarket, produce market, seafood market, gasoline station, other food market, shopping center within 1600 m.
Count of different types of public open space: park, sports field, beach access within 1600 m.
Number of bus stops and railway stations within 1600 m.
