Lincoln is in the top 50 healthiest cities in the United States according to Wallet Hub. We were able to do so well because of the available health care and overall fitness options. In fact, we came in 15th for both of those. However, Wallet Hub said that we need to work on eating more healthy. Apparently we don’t eat enough vegetables even though we have corn fields all around us. That’s not a joke. That’s one of the ranking factors. They based ranking on 43 different indicators like how obesity rates to mental health and vaccinations.
First place went to San Francisco. Seattle came in 2nd with Honolulu at 3rd. And I know we all want to know who did the worst. The unhealthiest cities were mostly down south. A loooooooot of them are in Texas with Brownsville at the very bottom. Oh yeah, we also beat Omaha. They came in 82nd. We’re at 49th. Ha!
