Sara Austin

Burlington, VT Named #1 On SELF Magazine’s 10th Annual Survey America’s Healthiest Places for Women

New York, NY – October 20, 2009 – SELF, the national womens well-being magazine with a readership of 6.1 million, announces Burlington, Vermont as the nations healthiest city in its 10th annual Healthiest Places for Women survey (November 2009 issue). Analyzing 100 U.S. metropolitan areas, this examination is the most comprehensive of its kind. Using a broad scope of research criteria, SELF evaluated more than 8,000 bits of data to determine each citys level of healthy living.

SELF polled a panel of experts to find out which factors most affect a womans ability to live her healthiest. Then compiled a list of 50 criteria, including rates of diseases such as cancer and depression; health care factors such as: the number of doctors per capita and the percentage of population with health insurance; environmental and community measures such as: air quality, crime rates and unemployment statistics; and habits such as exercise, diet and smoking.

SELF Magazines Healthiest Places for Women began 10 years ago to inspire women to get more active in their communities. We believe that little tweaks in your normal routine can make a big difference, says Sara Austin, news features director. Regardless of where your city ranks on the list, SELF and Self.coms experts can provide simple tools to assist you with fitness, health, nutrition and your overall sense of wellbeing.

Burlington beat out the 2008 winner, Bethesda, MD—now holding 2nd place—because of the citys low rates of diabetes, hypertension, cholesterol, smoking, cervical and ovarian cancer deaths. Residents maintain a fit lifestyle by walking to work and frequently exercising. The city also offers 40% more ob/gyns than the lists average. Additionally, there are six times as many food co-ops in Burlington, with farmers markets now taking food stamps to increase the opportunity to eat right.

Each year, SELF adds new criteria to the study to address climatic and behavioral changes. In 2009, quality of sleep is a new category. Women often underestimate how much skipping out on sleep can damage our health, Austin states. In the worst sleeping area, Charleston, WV, the average woman has insomnia three or four nights per week. A unique sidebar on each page gives get-fit tips from a woman living in an unhealthy city, emphasizing SELFs message that women can be healthy anywhere.
