Lung function gaps dropped by up to 26% between Black and White individuals after excluding those with unfavorable exposures. Remarkably, home ownership alone was linked to a 12–13% reduction in disparities among Black and White children.

Starting from a baseline reference population, we show racial gaps in lung function shrink as we sequentially exclude individuals with occupational dusts/fume exposure, inactivity, maternal/second-hand tobacco use, obesity, lack of home ownership and insurance, lower education, and unhealthy diet.
