Abstract
⺠We compare physical activity contexts between smart growth (SG) and conventional communities. ⺠We use Ecological Momentary Assessment with electronic surveys delivered through mobile phones. ⺠SG children are more physically active with friends, close to home, and at walkable locations. ⺠Over time, SG children report less physical activity at home and in high traffic locations. ⺠Urban design may influence where and with whom children engage in physical activity.
