“…The current outlet environment may be a critical component in promoting young adult tobacco product initiation. The pervasive availability of a multiplying array of tobacco products in local retail outlets globally, coupled with a growing body of evidence on the impact of outlets on smoking behavior, [10][11][12][13][14][16][17][18] suggests that the current outlet environment may be a contributing factor in promoting adult tobacco product experimentation and initiation. Licensing and zoning policies to restrict tobacco outlet density may be instrumental in reducing tobacco use initiation.…”

“…8 Recent years have seen a growing interest in reducing tobacco availability via retail outlets, 9 along with growing evidence that the distribution of outlets may impact tobacco use behavior. Studies have found that outlet density is associated with increased cigarette smoking among youth, [10][11][12][13][14] while outlet proximity [15][16][17][18] is associated with reduced smoking cessation among adults. However, evidence examining the impact of outlets on cigarette smoking or use of other tobacco products among young adults is scarce.…”

Background: A growing body of evidence indicates that the density of tobacco retail outlets around the home residence may influence tobacco use among youth and adults. The purpose of this study was to examine the impact of neighborhood tobacco retail outlet density on young adult initiation of different tobacco product types. Methods: Cross-sectional data from a 2013 nationally representative sample of young adults aged 18-34 was examined in relation to a 2012 geocoded listing of all outlets likely to sell tobacco in the United States. Separate multivariable logistic regression analyses examined associations between neighborhood outlet density and past 6 months first use of cigarettes, non-cigarette combustible products, and noncombustible products among adults aged 18-24 and 25-34. Results: Outlet density was significantly associated with recent initiation of cigarettes and other combustibles, but this impact varied for younger and older groups. Increased density was significantly associated with a higher likelihood of initiating cigarette use among adults aged 25-34 (OR = 3.75, 95% CI = 1.18, 11.90), and of initiating non-cigarette combustible use among 18-24 year olds (OR = 3.16, 95% CI = 1.03, 9.74). There was no impact of outlet density on recent noncombustible product initiation among either group. Conclusion: This study is the first to examine the impact of tobacco outlet density on young adult initiation of cigarettes and other tobacco products. Findings demonstrate that residential neighborhood outlet density is associated with recent initiation of combustible products and this effect varies by product type and age. The tobacco outlet environment may be a critical factor in promoting young adult tobacco use initiation.

“…[16][17][18][19] Proximity to tobacco retailers is associated with decreased success in tobacco use cessation, 20,21 although this may be true only in lower socioeconomic status neighborhoods. 22 Tobacco retailer density has been associated with smoking behaviors [23][24][25] and with youth initiation; 26 however, some findings are mixed. 21,25,27 There are both regional and local patterns of same-sex couple migration and neighborhood selection in the United States.…”

Background: Tobacco use is markedly higher among lesbian, gay, and bisexual populations than heterosexuals. Higher density of tobacco retailers is found in neighborhoods with lower income and more racial/ethnic minorities. Same-sex couples tend to live in similar neighborhoods, but the association of this demographic with tobacco retailer density has not been examined. Methods: For a national sample of 97 US counties, we calculated the number of tobacco retailers per 1000 persons and rates of same-sex couples per 1000 households in each census tract (n = 17 941). Using spatial regression, we examined the association of these variables in sex-stratified models, including neighborhood demographics and other environmental characteristics to examine confounding. Results: Results from spatial regression show that higher rates of both female and male same-sex couples were associated with a higher density of tobacco retailers. However the magnitude of this association was small. For female couples, the association was not significant after controlling for area-level characteristics, such as percent black, percent Hispanic, median household income, the presence of interstate highways, and urbanicity, which are neighborhood correlates of higher tobacco retailer density. For male couples, the association persisted after control for these characteristics. Conclusion: Same-sex couples reside in areas with higher tobacco retailer density, and for men, this association was not explained by neighborhood confounders, such as racial/ethnic composition and income. While lesbian, gay, and bisexual disparities in tobacco use may be influenced by neighborhood environment, the magnitude of the association suggests other explanations of these disparities remain important areas of research.

“…This procedure was repeated until a sample of 50 cities was obtained. The sample of 50 cities is not a simple random sample of these places but rather a purposive sample of cities intended to maximize validity with regard to the geography and ecology of the state (Lipperman-Kreda et al, 2012). Selected cities tended on average to have smaller populations, less ethnic diversity (e.g., 64% vs. 59% White), smaller households (2.82 vs. 2.93 persons), lower median household incomes ($50,000 vs. $52,000), and higher alcohol outlet densities (e.g., 1.38 vs. 1.15 on-premise outlets per 1,000 residents) relative to the entire 138-city sampling frame, but none of these differences were statistically signifi cant.…”

ABSTRACT. Objective: Couples in which one or both partners is a heavy or problem drinker are at elevated risk for intimate partner violence (IPV), yet little is known about the extent to which each partner's drinking in different contexts (volume consumed per setting in bars, parties, at home, or in public places) increases the likelihood that partner aggression will occur. This study examined associations between the volume consumed in different settings by each partner and the occurrence and frequency of IPV. Method: We obtained a geographic sample of married or cohabiting couples residing in 50 medium to large California cities. Cross-sectional survey data were collected via confidential telephone interviews (60% response rate). Logistic and negative binomial regression analyses were based on 1,585 couples who provided information about past-12-month IPV, drinking contexts (number of times attended, proportion of drinking occasions when attended, average number of drinks), frequency of intoxication, and psychosocial and demographic factors. Drinking context-IPV associations for each partner were adjusted for the other partner's volume for that context and other covariates. Results: Male partner's volume per setting for bars and parks or public places was associated with the occurrence and frequency of male-to-female IPV and female-to-male IPV. Male's volume per setting for quiet evening at home was associated with the occurrence of femaleto-male IPV; female partner's volume for this setting was associated with the frequency of male-to-female IPV and female-to-male IPV.
