Abstract

<p>This research aims to examine who used urban green spaces and how it related to health and well-being of urban residents during the COVID-19 pandemic. We performed binominal logistic regression analyses, using a cross-sectional dataset of 4,126 adults living in Tokyo, Japan. The results revealed that those who used urban green spaces had better subjective wellbeing and physical activity than those who did not, which indicating that urban green spaces played a certain role in supporting people's living during the crisis. However, the magnitude of its contribution differed depending on the type of users and the types of urban green spaces. It is important to create walkable neighborhoods that had a diverse mix of urban green spaces to ensures accessibility to urban green spaces for diverse people.</p>
