The aim of this study was to identify evidence about the prevalence of the community and environment indicators related to physical activity (PA) among young Brazilian people. A systematic review was carried out using eight databases (PubMed, Scopus, Web of Science, LILACS, SPORTDiscus, BIREME, Scielo, and Google Scholar) with descriptors in Portuguese and English. Community and environment Indicators included access, presence, proximity, quality, safety and pollution of/in spaces, facilities, programs available for PA among young people (up to 18 years-old), which may be measured subjectively and/or objectively. A total of 23 documents were included, representing 15 different studies. There were more studies in the South region (n=8), followed by the Northeast (n=3) and Southeast (n=3). Self-reported instruments were more frequently used (n=15). The studies reported prevalence of perception (positive and/or barrier) for access to facilities, programs and/or parks (n=13); presence of sidewalks and bicycle lanes (n=4); proximity to residence (n=5); quality (n=5); safety from crime and traffic (n=14) and pollution (n=6); number of spaces and/or facilities around the residence (n=1); and observation of adolescents using public spaces for PA (n=3). The prevalence rates showed high variability according to environmental indicator. No studies are available for the North and Midwest of the country. Distinct environmental measures were used in selfreported studies, impairing data comparability. To date, no studies have been identified that provide information about the prevalence of combined environmental measures (perceived and objective).
