THURSDAY, MARCH 17, 2016
What matters most when it comes to good health? Research shows that socioeconomic and environmental factors account for a little more than half of what determines our health outcomes. These factors include not only income and education but the characteristics of the neighborhoods in which we live, such as access to quality affordable housing, grocery stores that carry fresh produce, safe places to play and exercise, and good schools and jobs. Where we live matters. Your zip code is more important than your genetic code when it comes to how long you live.
