Abstract
⺠Short sleep duration is a risk factor for multiple adverse pediatric outcomes. ⺠Built environment characteristics, including urbanicity, can adversely affect sleep duration. ⺠Infants living in neighborhoods that were more urban had shorter sleep duration. ⺠Our findings suggest that the built environment may influence infant sleep.
