†Adjusted model including tobacco store densities and neighbourhood demographic variables (median household income, percentage of population aged >65, percentage who have completed a bachelor’s degree and percentage of African-Americans).
‡ Adjusted included all three store densities and neighbourhood demographic variables (median household income, percentage of population aged >65, percentage who have completed a bachelor’s degree and percentage of African-Americans).
§Note that the median household income was scaled to $10 000.
