Spatial clustering of children’s lifestyle at 3–6 years in the province of Drenthe, The Netherlands. A ‘high activity’ pattern; B ‘low screen time, high sleep and healthy diet’ pattern; C ‘high outdoor play’ pattern. The geographically weighted mean score for each pattern was plotted against the geographically weighted standard deviation (SD) as a reflection of differences between areas (turquoise) and between children within areas (magenta). The colour palettes reflect tertiles in each variable [56]. In the grey areas (low pattern score) and turquoise areas (high pattern score), the SD is low, indicating little variation between children within the neighbourhood. In the dark blue areas, the pattern scores are high with a high SD, indicating that in that area children generally score high, but the pattern scores differ largely between children. Lastly, in the magenta areas, the mean pattern scores are low, but the variation between children is large
