The neighbourhood physical environment and active travel in older adults: a systematic review and meta-analysis

Ester Cerin, Andrea Nathan, Jelle Van Cauwenberg, David W. Barnett et al.

Short summary

Older adults' active travel (walking/cycling for transport) is strongly linked to their neighbourhood's physical environment, with sufficient evidence showing positive associations for residential density, walkability, street connectivity, and access to services. Conversely, littering and decay were negatively associated with walking for transport.
