Healthiest cities in America
Health is certainly on the minds of many Americans this time of year.
With the start of each year comes the commitment from many of us to move more, eat less, and generally embrace a healthier lifestyle. But while it's one thing to adopt a healthy mindset, it's another to actually stick to it.
Where you live plays an important role in reaching and maintaining your health goals. The route to healthy living involves many factors, including access to the outdoors, a sustainable work-life balance, mild weather conditions, and access to education.
