I was surprised that New Yorkers have the longest longevity of life for these reasons:

NO Trans Fats are served anywhere.
Calorie Counts are on all menus.
Encouraged activity with more bike lanes and walking trails.

I think added the competitive mentality, busy life style and constant walking, adds to the longevity.

7 things we can do ANYWHERE to increase longevity:

1. Cut Calories the Easy Way
2. Stop drinking sugar
3. Eat nuts 5 days a week
4. Explore your environment
5. Skip Soup and go straight for salad
6. Phone a friend regularly
7. Remember, there is life after retirement!

To see the details, go to added link below.

there is no life after retirement it's just slowly waiting for death and not being able to do ANYTHING!
Rather than trying hard to avoid death, why not enjoy life and do whatever you want so you have no regrets when death comes?

This isn't about avoiding death, it's about being as healthy as you can and increasing your longevity. Anyone can die any day.

True and that's the reason why we should all do what we love and not try desperately to expand our life and not do what would make us happy

As a New Yorker, there are times I wish the calorie count WASN'T posted! Even when you want to be "bad" -- in good conscience when you actually see a whole days calories posted for ONE item, you just can't do it!

My once per month fast food purchases are now happy meals! I hope they don't stop giving out the toys!

PS: The outdoor activity part is very true. You HAVE to walk a lot here. I only use my car on the weekends or to move it on alternate side of the street parking days. If my subway connection is taking too long, I just get out and walk home. I started using a pedometer and meet or exceed the 10,000 step per day goal. When I first moved back here, I dropped ten pounds without trying.

You're really gonna say these are the reasons why they're living longer? Trans fats were outlawed very recently right?

Few people even care about the calorie counts.

studies have proven the meaner a person is ,the longer they live, thats why new yorkers live longer,if they really do.

It's a myth that NY'ers as a whole are meaner. They aren't. Not at all. And conflict in your life brings your blood pressure up and other bad things. It's not healthy.

i don't know,they do seem to be meaner. after all living in a crowded city will make you short tempered. it may raise your blood pressure but mean people live longer. by the way sex raises blood pressure too.LOL

I agree that they are busier and they walk most everywhere. But this sort of high paced, albeit stressed pace, doesn't make them mean, although I can see it appearing to.
