(2017, background): “Moreover, close proximately to walkable destinations (eg, parks, trails, and recreational facilities) is associated with greater physical activity and lower obesity rates.(95) Observed features within neighborhoods associated with obesity include poor sidewalk quality, physical disorder of the neigh”
- Systematic literature review of built environment effects on physical activity and active transport – an update and new findings on health equity (2017, background): “Increasing focus is being placed on the role of the built environment in promoting physical activity, recognising the sustained nature and potential for broad reach of environmental interventions, and the potential to promote substantial changes in populationlevel physical activity [4].”
- The Epidemiology of Obesity: A Big Picture (2015, background): “While presence of neighborhood physical activity or recreational spaces has been associated with increased physical activity levels or energy expenditure [71, 72], healthy food environments, characterized by availability of produce or presence of supermarkets over convenience stores or fast food res”
- Physical inactivity is associated with a higher risk for severe COVID-19 outcomes: a study in 48 440 adult patients (2021, background): “21 The findings here provide additional rationale and motivation for individuals to be more physically active, as well as for communities to design environments that are more conducive to routine PA, 22 23 especially amid the COVID-19 pandemic.”
- The Relation of Perceived and Objective Environment Attributes to Neighborhood Satisfaction (2017, background): “…important than objective reality, and participants were consistently more satisfied when they perceived that their neighborhoods were designed to support physical activity, with mixed land use, good aesthetics, safety from traffic, and access to parks (Bauman et al., 2012; Sallis et al., 2012).”
