Longevity ⇒ Article: "What To Know About Your ‘Life Radius’ and How It Can Lead to a Longer Life"

[OzSport]

This article introduces a concept called one's "Life Radius", "which refers to the area within five miles of your home, where we live 80 to 90 percent of our lives":  https://www.wellandgood.com/life-radius/

In essence, "“The people who live the longest tend to live within environments where the healthy choice is the easy or even unavoidable choice.” —Dan Buettner, Blue Zones founder  

This is where infrastructure policy can make such a big difference to peoples' lives -- the easier it is for people to commute to work and social activities, as well as to shops where you can get nutritious food (google the term "food desert"), the better their health can be.
