Measured and perceived environmental characteristics are related to accelerometer defined physical activity in older adults

Table 3 Participant physical activity level by high and low walkability and neighborhood site

	High-walkability (n= 86)		Low-walkability (n= 62)
Physical Activity	Neighborhood A	Neighborhood B	Neighborhood C	Neighborhood D
Total Volume (activity counts/day)	326204 ± 69841	289566 ± 66712	213695 ± 76713 ^{a, b}	226115 ± 72487 ^{a, b}
Light Intensity PA (min/day)	290.8 ± 79.4	287.6 ± 69.6	243.7 ± 46.2 ^{a, b}	246.4 ± 58.9 ^{a, b}
Moderate to vigorous PA (min/day)	26.5 ± 10.0	29.6 ± 12.1	16.3 ± 5.3 ^{a, b}	18.8 ± 6.7 ^{a, b}

Note: PA Physical activity. ^aSignificantly different from Neighborhood A, p < 0.05. ^bSignificantly different from Neighborhood B, p < 0.05. Activity counts/day calculated by 60 second epochs. Light intensity PA represents minutes per day with accelerometer counts per minute between 50-759. Moderate to vigorous physical activity represents minutes per day with accelerometer counts per minute of ≥ 760.
