  • Results of single-destination-variable models.

  • *Results represent antilogarithms of regression coefficients (ie, eb). All models adjusted for age, gender, educational attainment, neighbourhood socioeconomic status, neighbourhood clustering effects, and significant neighbourhood safety and infrastructure attributes.

  • b, regression coefficient; eb, antilogarithm of regression coefficient.
