I always love hearing what cities in the US are considered the most “fit”. If I had to guess the fittest city in the US, I’d probably guess Los Angeles or Orange County because of the year round nice weather and celebrity following out there. Everyone seems like they look amazing out there at all times, or maybe I just watch too much Real Housewives 😉
According to Time.com, here is the list of the top 20 FITTEST cities….some may surprise you!
- Minneapolis-St. Paul, Minn.
- Washington, D.C.
- Portland, Ore.
- San Francisco, Calif.
- Denver, Colo.
- Boston, Mass.
- Sacramento, Calif.
- Seattle, Wash.
- Hartford, Conn.
- San Jose, Calif.
- Austin, Texas
- Salt Lake City, Utah
- Cincinnati, Ohio
- San Diego, Calif.
- Raleigh, N.C.
- Pittsburgh, Pa.
- Baltimore, Md.
- Virginia Beach, Va.

A lot of people were surprised to hear that Minneapolis, MN is the #1 fittest city. Since I’ve been in the fitness world, I’m actually not surprised at all. I know SOOOO many amazing fitness girls and guys that live in Minneapolis. I’ve actually always wanted to compete at the Fitness America Great North show because I’m sure it’s a good show!!!
Surprise surprise, my two cities (Indianapolis and Chicago) are not on the list once again. Come on Chi-town and the Circle City…step up your game!!
What do you think about this list? Do any of them surprise you?
Interesting! I’m actually surprised that I know them all…I was kind of expecting there to be some small underdog, practically-unheard-of cities. Cool to see! Thanks for posting!
