Make Your City a Blue Zone
We distilled a blue print from the original blue zones that help cities lower the obesity rate and thrive economically.

Blue Zones Project
Our success in cities, businesses, and states across America makes Blue Zones Project a proven model for transforming the health of large populations.
BLUE ZONES PROJECT COMMUNITIES HAVE EXPERIENCED:
- Double digit drops in obesity, smoking, and BMI (body mass index)
- Millions of dollars of savings in healthcare costs
- Measurable drops in employee absenteeism

Making the Healthy Choice the Easy Choice
Almost all Americans spend 90% of our lives within 20 miles of home. That is where we focus, using evidence-based lessons of longevity known as the Blue Zones Power 9. We improve street and park designs, public policy, and social involvement so that it’s easy for people to make healthy choices.

A Community Wide Approach to Well-Being
We don’t just rely on individual behavior change. We improve community health by making permanent and semi-permanent changes on multiple levels. We improve or optimize city streets (smoking policies, bike lanes, sidewalks), public spaces (parks, lakes, walking paths), schools (cafeterias, safe walking paths to school), restaurants, grocery stores, employers, faith-based organizations, and community involvement.
EFFECTIVE. IMPACTFUL. SUSTAINABLE.

Transform Your Community
Successful communities have a champion(s) that leads the process of securing funding and educating and driving community stakeholder interest. Past and current project champions include health insurance executives, public health officials, and community leaders. They all have one thing in common: they have the vision to change their community.
