Numbers were too low in the Oceania group for the model to converge, so excluded from this analysis. Hazard ratios were adjusted for individual and family confounders (age, sex, lone dwelling, family income, social welfare, family unemployment, and time since migration [migrants only]) and neighbourhood confounders (deprivation index, population density, and proportion of lone dwellings) and are calculated per 5% decrease in density.
