^a Neighborhood deprivation is in z-score units (per 1 SD increase).

^b Bold values are significant (p<0.05). Betas represent difference in mean psychological distress as compared to the reference category. In Model 1 is adjusted for gender, age, ethnicity, marital status, education, employment status and years of residence. In Model 2 is adjusted for gender, age, ethnicity, marital status, education, financial deprivation and years of residence.

^c Recipients of disability, social assistance or unemployment benefits.
