Diabetes & Activity Friendly Neighbourhoods High DM rates Low DM rates Lower AFI score Higher AFI score Lower AFI score Neighbourhood Environments and Resources for Healthy Living: A Focus on Diabetes in Toronto

Key Finding # 1 Diabetes rates are highest in areas that have: – lower income levels –higher unemployment rates –a higher percentage of population without high school education –a higher proportion of visible minorities –high immigration rates

Key Finding # 2 High diabetes areas tend to be outside of downtown and have generally worse: –access to resources –activity friendliness

Key Finding # 3 Neighbourhoods are affected differently: –downtown high risk areas have lower diabetes rates than expected –wealthy areas have low diabetes rates, no matter their access to resources or activity friendliness
