  1. *p < 0.05; **p < 0.01; ***p < 0.001. Models adjusted for education, employment, household income and urban/rural classification
  2. aSeparate models were fitted for each of the alcohol outlet access measures (i.e., number within 0.4 km and number within 3 km)
  3. bOdds ratio and 95% confidence interval
  4. cGreater than zero is the continuous predictor for all observations greater than zero
  5. dToo few individuals had a late night on-site outlet within 0.4 km of home (n = 13). Only the number within 3 km was considered as an exposure
