These neighbourhood characteristics were also associated with lower incidence of ADL limitations (disorder OR=0.59 (0.43 to 0.81)); social cohesion OR=0.60 (0.45 to 0.81)); safety OR=0.74 (0.58 to 0.93)). High social ties were not related to ADLs (OR=1.01(0.80 to 1.28)) or IADLs (OR=0.93(0.74 to 1.17)). The benefits of these neighbourhood characteristics for ADLs were similar among those with and without memory impairment but primarily observed among those without memory impairment for IADLs.<\/jats:p>\n               <\/jats:sec>\n               <jats:sec>\n                  <jats:title>Conclusions<\/jats:title>\n                  <jats:p>Older adults living in neighbourhoods with low physical disorder, high social cohesion and high safety experience lower incidence of IADL and ADL limitations.
