The flip side of the coin when it comes to discussing the fattest cities in America is, of course, which cities are home to the fittest populations.
Using a host of criteria focusing on the healthy lifestyles of certain urban centers, Men’s Fitness magazine has labeled these 25 cities the country’s most fit:
- Salt Lake City
- Colorado Springs
- Minneapolis
- Denver
- Albuquerque
- Portland
- Honolulu
- Seattle
- Omaha
- Virginia Beach
- Milwaukee
- San Francisco
- Tucson
- Boston
- Cleveland
- St. Louis
- Austin
- Washington
- Sacramento
- Oakland
- Atlanta
- Fresno
- Tampa
- Nashville
- Pittsburgh
It’s interesting how so many of these are either in the Midwest or West, which I suppose gives support to the argument that life is generally better outside the Northeast corridor.
