Note. Figures in parentheses are 95% confidence intervals. Rows of boldface numbers are significantly (P < .05) different within the boldfaced block. Boldfaced blocks for ordinal variables age and education level are also significant for linear trend. There is significant linear trend with age for the variables Alternative routes and Transit stop.
