According to the Naples Daily News, the greater Naples area earned the top spot for “well-being” from among nearly 200 American cities.
The telephone survey by Gallup-Healthways asked more than 350,000 adults how they were doing in their daily lives and how optimistic they were about their future. The questions ask about access to health care, medicine, food, insurance, dental care, finances and sense of community. The responses are categorized into five subject areas based on how much people like what they do each day, their social networks of support, financial situations, whether they have pride in their community and also physical health.
President and chief executive officer of the NCH Healthcare System, Dr. Allen Weiss, expects Naples’ top rating to attract health conscious people to select the area when they want to move to fast-growing Florida and that will increase economic opportunities locally.
Naples is walkable, safe, attractive and has a lot of community spirit, and those are key ingredients for people looking for the right place to live.
