Recent research conducted in mainland China found that obesity prevalence was higher among
children in wealthier families, 4 but the patterns were different in Hong Kong with higher rates of childhood obesity among lower income families.4 5 Hong Kong, despite having a per capita gross domestic product of Hong Kong dollar (HK$) 273 550, has large income differences between rich and poor as reflected by a high Gini coefficient of 0.539 reported in 2016; approximately 20 % of the population are living in poverty as defined by a monthly household income below half of the Hong Kong median.6 It is widely
accepted that population health tend to be worse in societies with greater income inequalities, and hence low - income families in these societies are particularly
at risk of health problems.7 In our previous study,
children from Hong Kong Chinese low - income families experienced poorer health and more behavioural problems than other
children in the population
at similar age.8 Adults from these families also reported poorer health - related quality of life (HRQOL), 9 with 6.1 % of the parents having a known history of mental illness and 18.2 % of them reporting elevated level of stress.
