24/7 Wall Street is out with another compilation of interesting facts about the U.S. This time, we find out about the healthiest city in each state.

Not only is Sioux Falls the healthiest city in our state, but one of the healthiest cities in the U.S. Which is surprising considering we also have a huge number of eateries here too. What is the healthiest city in the country? Ames, Iowa.

The rankings were determined by looking at overall health outcomes and factors as well as length and quality of life issues. The health factors were a composite of healthy behaviors, clinical care, social and economic elements and physical environment.

One of the major factors which led to a city being a healthy environment was education. Almost without exception the most healthy cities have a large population of citizens who have completed at least some college. Better education means better jobs, which leads to better health care and apparently healthier lifestyle choices too.

You can find out which city is the healthiest in each state here.
