摘要
Urban environments influence health and are determinants in reducing inequalities. Walkability plays a crucial role in urban planning and health promotion. This study aims to assess the walkability of Granada and its association with cardiovascular disease mortality. Using a mixed-methods approach with citizen participation and ecological analysis across 183 census tracts, we calculated walkability indices (Walk Score (c)) and analyzed their association with mortality. Our findings revealed a preference for a pedestrian-friendly city and sustainable mobility. Quantitative results showed significant spatial differences in mortality based on Walk Score (c), sex, and specific diseases. This mixed methods approach enriched our understanding of walkability in Granada and its impact on cardiovascular health.
