Abstract
⺠Participation in activities is a major aspect of health. ⺠We modeled the effect of neighbourhood characteristics on participation. ⺠Neighbourhood safety, problems, and cohesion predict participation. ⺠Social support mediates some relationships between neighbourhoods and participation. ⺠Neighbourhood changes can promote participation in older adults with chronic conditions.
