  1. Note: RR = Rate ratio. Rate ratios and 95% confidence intervals were derived from multivariable GEE negative binomial regression analysis. Bold values represent significant associations (two-sided p value < 0.05). Model 1 = Model adjusted for age, gender, self-rated health, and urban region. Model 2 = Model 1 additionally adjusted for education. Model 3 = Model 1 additionally adjusted for preference for neighbourhoods with recreational facilities present. Model 4 = Model 1 additionally adjusted for education and preference for neighbourhoods with recreational facilities present
