Investigating the link between impulsivity and obesity through urban scaling laws

Fig 1

Urban scaling results for 915 cities in the United States of America.

As a function of the city population, dots identify the number of (A) adults living with obesity in 2015, (B) children with a diagnosis of ADHD in 2016-2018, (C) adults who reported no leisure-time physical activity in 2015, (D) mental health providers in 2015, (E) adults with some post-secondary education in 2015, and (F) food-insecurity in 2015. The dashed line in each plot represents linear scaling and insets show corresponding per-capita metrics.
