“…There was an even higher residential and population density in the cluster. This result can be explained by the relationship of these variables with greater accessibility and proximity to different destinations, favoring walking or cycling 21,22 , i.e., the higher population density would be associated with greater walkability, with more "walkable" destinations. Furthermore, it is believed that in denser locations there are more people on the streets, leading to less perception of insecurity23, 24. In this study, CAPHC inside the cluster had better socioeconomic status, determined by the average family income.…”
