We use cactus{}, a new implementation of the\u0000state-of-the-art segmentation method nexus{}, to delineate the simulation\u0000volume into nodes, filaments, walls, and voids. We group host halos by virial\u0000mass and segment each mass bin into consecutive CW elements. This reveals that\u0000subhalo populations in hosts within specific environments differ on average\u0000from the cosmic mean. The subhalo mass function is affected strongly, where\u0000hosts in filaments typically contain more subhalos (5 to 30%), while hosts in\u0000voids are subhalo-poor, with 50% fewer subhalos. We find that the abundance of\u0000the most massive subhalos, with reduced masses of $muequiv\u0000M_mathrm{sub}/M_{200}geq0.1$ is most sensitive to the CW environment. A\u0000corresponding picture emerges when looking at subhalo mass fractions,\u0000$f_mathrm{sub}$, where the filament hosts are significantly more `granular'\u0000(having higher $f_mathrm{sub}$) than the cosmic mean, while the void hosts\u0000have much smoother density distributions (with $f_mathrm{sub}$ lower by\u0000$10{-}40%$ than the mean). Finally, when we look at the subhalo internal\u0000kinematic vmax{}--rmax{} relations, we find that subhalos located in the void\u0000and wall hosts exhibit density profiles with lower concentrations than the\u0000mean, while the filament hosts demonstrate much more concentrated mass\u0000profiles. Across all our samples, the effect of the CW environment generally\u0000strengthens with decreasing host halo virial mass. Our results show that host\u0000location in the large-scale CW introduces significant systematic effects on\u0000internal subhalo properties and population statistics.
