When searching for places to live, you may look for places with the best schools, the best restaurants or entertainment options, or perhaps the most affordable city. But what about moving to one of the healthiest places in America?
When we say health, we’re not just talking about cities filled with high-end gyms, walking trails and salad bars. Many factors can influence an individual’s well-being, including genetics, behaviors, access to quality health care and the general environment. In fact, nearly one-quarter of global deaths are due to modifiable environmental factors, according to the World Health Organization.
To find the healthiest and unhealthiest counties in America, the Marketwatch Guides team looked at factors that affect health, such as air pollution, grocery stores, income and preventable hospitalization rates. These factors can lead to increased doctor visits and ultimately have an impact on quality of life factors that may affect health and life insurance rates. Read on to learn about our findings and check out our Methodology section for more on how we collected this data.
