Description

For sample adults, WLKTRAIL reports if there are walkable roads, sidewalks, paths, or trails near where the respondent lives.

WLKTRAIL is part of a series of variables about a person's perceptions of their walking environment. Please see WLKHOME for the full list of variables.

Comparability

While the basic meaning of this variable is completely comparable over time, major questionnaire changes introduced in 2019 may affect comparability with earlier years. The NHIS questionnaire was substantially redesigned in 2019 to introduce a different data collection structure and new content. For more information on changes in terminology, universes, and data collection methods beginning in 2019, please see the user note.
