The American College of Sports Medicine released its list of the most fit American cities today – and Washington, D.C. topped the list as the healthiest city in the whole US.
The index considers all aspects of health, including disease rates, rates of obesity, consumption of fruits and veggies, outdoor exercise options, and more – and despite its undoubtedly high stress levels, the capital ultimately outraced all other cities thanks to low smoking rates, high numbers of community rec centers, running paths, and swimming pools, and lower than average rates of diabetes and obesity. Not bad for a little ol’ federal district!
The complete list of top 10 cities was as follows:
1. Washington, DC
2. Boston, MA
3. Minneapolis, MN
4. Seattle, WA
5. Portland, OR
6. Denver, CO
7. Sacramento, CA
8. San Francisco Bay Area, CA
9. Hartford, CT
10. Austin, TX
