  •   Objective  To systematically evaluate the relationship between the community food environment with overweight and obesity risk in children, and to provide evidence-based evidence for the development of guidelines and policies.  Methods  Relevant Chinese and English literatures published from 1998 to 2020 were searched in the database of CBM, CNKI, Wanfang Data, Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMbase.  Results  A total of 8 English literatures were included in this systematic evaluation, including 3 cohort studies and 5 cross-sectional studies. The results showed that the number and type, as well as distance to food stores/restaurants in the neighborhood of family or school were associated with the weight status, waist circumference and obesity risk of children. The number of fast food restaurants, convenience stores, and grocery stores was positively correlated with the risk of childhood obesity, and the number of supermarkets and free markets was associated with a lower risk of overweight and obesity in children.  Conclusion  The community food environment might be associated with childhood obesity, which is warrented more high-quality scientific evidence.
