Honolulu ranked among nation’s healthiest cities

Honolulu ranks number ten among healthiest U.S. cities for men, according to Men’s Health magazine's Metrogrades list for January and February.  However, Honolulu ranked Number 26 overall among the Best Cities for Men, as it did not receive a top-ten rank for quality of life or fitness for men.

The magazine says the top ten overall best cities for men are Madison, Wis.; St. Paul, Minn.; Salt Lake City; Seattle; Aurora, Colo.; San Jose, Calif.; Lincoln, Neb.; San Francisco; Boston; and Minneapolis.

According to the December Womens Health  magazine, for women the top ten cities are not all the same as for men, but seven of the women’s top ten are also on the men's list. Cities that are apparently better for women than men are Denver; Fargo, N. Dak.; and Manchester, N.H. Honolulu is the seventh healthiest city for women, according to the Men's Health sister-publication.
