Abstract
Residents of disordered neighborhoods have higher type 2 diabetes prevalence. Although marginalized racial/ethnic groups more often live in disordered neighborhoods, they are less likely to report disorder compared to non-Hispanic Whites. By investigating self-reported disorder and diabetes by race/ethnicity, this study demonstrated a significant diabetes-disorder association among all racial/ethnic groups.
