There are some cities where people find it easier to stay active…
WalletHub looked at the 100 most populated US cities, using nearly 3 dozen metrics in two main categories: sports and outdoors, which mainly looks at the per capita rate of various recreational options; and budget and participation, which looks at such factors as how much it costs to join a fitness center and the share of adults who are physically inactive.
San Francisco tops the list as the most active city.
