Note(s): Model 1 corresponds to regression with socioeconomic, lifestyle variables and externalities from public services (Sport, Culture). Model 2 corresponds to regression with the same variables as in Model 1 and with an additional variable on public transport (Transport), reducing observations from 984 to 642. Model 3 corresponds to regression with the same variables as in Model 1 but with environmental externality (Environment). If we keep public transport (Transport) in Model 3, there are only 220 observations left. All explanatory variables are exogenous based on the variable addition test (Wooldridge, 2014). Significance levels: *10%, ** 5% and *** 1%. Other nonsignificant variables used in the estimations are Median income, Age, House Ownership, Female, Engagement, SWB_indi_coll. The complete table with all variables is reported in Appendix 2 (Table A4)
