 2014 national evaluation data from 20 communities participating in the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention Community Transformation Grants program were used to assess associations among factors at the individual, census tract, and county levels with being overweight or obese and with the perceived home food environment using multi-level multivariable models. Individual-level socio-demographic characteristics were significantly associated with the likelihood of being overweight or obese in every model tested, while census tract level poverty and education were only significant in univariate analyses. Perceived community food environment was a significant predictor of the perceived home food environment, but neither perceived nor objected community food environment measures were significantly associated with overweight slash obesity in multivariable analyses. The conclusion is that individual-level socio-demographic characteristics are more strongly associated with obesity-related outcomes than area-level measures and future interventions should focus on nutrition education tailored to individuals to encourage purchase and consumption of healthy food, as well as improving healthy food availability in underserved communities.
