Notes: The reference group for all the social cohesion and capital variables is “low” so results are interpreted as medium or high levels (compared to low levels). The models are based on multivariable analyses and all the covariates are continuously specified so there is no reference group but interpreted as a one-unit change on the standard deviation scale.

In all analyses, there are covariates that correspond to the distribution of these social determinants among the total Philadelphia population, within each Census Tract: % black,% male,% of foreign born,% vacant homes, and socioeconomic disadvantage.
