San Jose has the healthiest residents in the US

A recent Forbes study looked at the 46 most populous cities in the country and compared health metrics including heart disease deaths, opioid deaths, the percentage of adults with diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity, as well as the percentage of people that binge drink, smoke, or are deficient in physical activity.

After all the numbers were crunched, San Jose ranked as the #1 healthiest city in the United States. San Jose has consistently ranked high for longevity in previous years, adding more credence to this ranking.

Second on the list was Austin, Texas while San Francisco made it to the 6th spot. The unhealthiest populations were Detroit and Milwaukee.
