The Neighborhood Alcohol Environment and AtaRisk Drinking Among AfricanaAmericans

Background: Our objective was to examine whether components of the neighborhood alcohol environment-liquor store, on-premise outlet, convenience store, and supermarket densities-are positively associated with at-risk alcohol consumption among African-American drinkers.

description Background: Our objective was to examine whether components of the neighborhood alcohol environment-liquor store, on-premise outlet, convenience store, and supermarket densities-are positively associated with at-risk alcohol consumption among African-American drinkers. Methods: A multilevel cross-sectional sample of 321 African-American women and men ages 21 to 65years recruited from April 2002 to May 2003 from three community-based healthcare clinics in New Orleans, Louisiana, was studied. Results: The alcohol environment had a significant impact on at-risk alcohol consumption among African-American drinkers, specifically liquor store density (adjusted OR=3.11, 95% CI=1.87, 11.07). Furthermore, the influence of the alcohol environment was much stronger for African-American female drinkers (adjusted OR=6.96, 95% CI=1.38, 35.08). Conclusions: Treatment and prevention programs should take into account the physical environment, and the concentration of outlets in minority neighborhoods must be addressed as it poses potential health risks to the residents of these neighborhoods.
