Richmond, British Columbia, Canada - Here's a good news for the residents of Richmond and people intending to move into one of the largest asian communities in North America.
As I was browsing through the web site of the city of Richmond, the health and longevity section had called my attention. It's an article referring to Statistics Canada which reports that people living in Richmond have the best life expectancy in all of Canada. Wow, isn't that something residents here should be amazed about?
The country's average for a person's life span is 78.3 years while the average for Richmond residents is 81.2 years. This could be attributed to the fact that the city seems to have the lowest obesity and smoking rates.
This apparently reflects the residents' daily healthy lifestyle, including the right choice for food, physical fitness or sport activity and embracing their ethnic influences while blending with the western way of living.
Kudos for Richmond!
