  1. Unstandardized beta (b) coefficients represent mean difference in physical activity relative to non-movers, adjusted for baseline sex, age, children, education, income, and employment status.
  2. MPA: moderate-intensity physical activity. VPA: vigorous-intensity physical activity. MVPA: moderate-to-vigorous intensity physical LW: leisure walking. TW: transportation walking.
  3. *Statistically significant difference (p < .05) in follow-up physical activity minutes among movers to less and more street integration compared with non-movers (reference group).
  4. aThe follow-up physical activity variables are unstandardized residuals estimated from a linear regression adjusting for baseline physical activity and elapsed time between completed baseline and follow-up surveys.
