- Which is the healthiest city in the world 2022
We all know Spain is a beautiful country with awesome weather and long life expectancy, but did you know that the healthiest city in the whole world is here?
Yes, and I am lucky to be living in it. Valencia has been crown as the healthiest city two years in a-row. The ranking is based on a very complex formula which includes data from factors such as air pollution, sunny days in the year, quality of local produce, green spaces, mental and physiological health and much more.
I hope you will like my video and please COMMENT below which city in the world do you live in?

![How I See the US After Living Abroad for 15 Years [CULTURE SHOCK]](http://i.ytimg.com/vi/DO5x_tJBn7w/mqdefault.jpg)
Believe it or not I have been following you for a while and so inspired that I decided to make the big leap to move from Los Angeles to Valencia . Yes believe me . I left my job , sold my condo and my car. I am so over this traffic , pollution , high cost , over population , homeless encampments everywhere. This is not where I want to spend the rest of my life . I’m Now just counting down the days until my flight when I come enjoy a much much better life style and good quality of living!
Really???? I am so happy when I see people taking action! Do not fear anything. A move can be challenging and never without issues but AWESOME!!! Congratulations on your move! Tune in tomorrow for a live Q A
welcome to spain
@@vicentelleo6691 I know Spain too well to do that, for me, a large LG TV is everything, not that I can't have that in Spain, I become numb every time I come back to LA and forget how good it is. Valencia is considered one of the ugliest places but so it Bilbao and I would end up there because of family. It has a Costco. Valencia is probably better. What problems we face is taxes, California isn't going to let you go that easily, my friends had to move to Florida for 5 years so they can escape taxes and have to deal with a lawyer that knows california's laws. Sad.. I love this weather too much to leave, but yes, when they bussed over the homeless, they ruined our state, they keep winning in office because there is way too much corruption. DA is put in by Soros, but so is the president of Spain. I dream of Australia, way over priced, not a good idea, but what other option do I have. Spain. Canada too cold, mexico has the cartel. Australia has poisonous bugs and animals. I wish I could find the perfect place, Spain woudl be it of me because of family. US is already sticking their noses in bank accounts Americans have over seas. they really want to know what you have.
@@MrFernanrc Anyone who complains about Soros is suspicious.
Hello from California. The stress here in the SF Bay Area is immense. My partner and I are currently selling everything and 99% sure we are moving to Valencia. We love your videos. Your informative without trying too hard or without being boring. Thanks for great quality.
Oh wow! That’s great that you live there. I knew Spain is high in the list for life expectancy but I didn’t know Valencia is the healthiest. Lucky you!
Yes yes yes ☺️ it is great and sunny!
And yet the longest life expectancy in Spain is mostly just outside Madrid? Odd, but I am assuming that those are the wealthiest regions and re concentrated with people who take better care of themselves?
I am not in the least bit surprised by this ranking. When I lived in Valencia for three months and went back 10 years later, I was just amazed by the number of people doing outdoor fitness activities in the wonderful Turia gardens (did so myself and I so miss it!) And while not being fitness fanatics, I noticed very few overweight people among the locals. Balanced lifestyles, climate, availability of fresh and locally grown produce, etc. What a difference from Toronto with its cold winters, a public transit infrastructure that has been lagging the population's growth for decades, reliance on cars, etc.
One thing that wasn't mentioned in your video is the impact of affordable housing on general well-being. The housing crisis in Toronto has led to an explosion of homeless people with addiction, physical mental health issues, made worse by COVID. It has become a defining feature of the city.
Thank you Antoanetta. Watching your videos keeps me and my wife excited about retiring there in 9 more years. This decision was made before I knew that it was the healthiest city in the world.
We plan on going there to visit later on this year. It will be my 2nd trip.
Hi! I live in Drammen, a city in Norway. I like your CZcams channel. We have a holiday home in Villajoyosa one and a half hours south of Valencia. You have inspired me to spend some of my time in the city of Valencia.
Oh great!! Yes for sure too many beautiful things here not to be missed, especially when you already have a house. I want to visit Northern countries I haven’t been anywhere up north.
Valencia looks pretty balanced city. It has beaches, huge parks, fresh food and seems pretty organized. Knowing that is the healthiest city in the world makes more attractive to relocate there.
I'm from L.A, there are nice parks, nice beaches, good restaurants. But I don't trust the food, you have to read the labels to know what you're eating.
An example is when you buy milk or meat, you get warnings that certain hormones may have been used. This is scary and makes you think why so many Americans get sick. My dream is to one day I can move to Spain.
Yes for sure! I lived in LA 20 years. I’m Spain some American foods and products are forbidden because of hormones and other things.. I hope you move here!
Thank you for your video, it is very illustrative, Valencia is a spectacular city.
Robert from Malaga, Spain you will always welcome!!👏👏👏👏👏👏
@@Juanfernandez-sm8jlIn Málaga we have more than 300 sunny days per year, protected by many montains all around 1.000, 2.000 and 3.000 meters high (Sierra Nevada in Granada very near). The temperature is really fantastic all the time (except July and August very worm like everywhere). No storms as in Valencia and Alicante because the sea water is cold, it is the only inconvenience, but we don´t suffer "Gotas Frías" like in Levante where the sea water is too warm, because the sea water evaporation is very great and make many storms. The Málaga geograhical situation is really exceptional, very near from the Gibraltar Strait, a very good Airport and many beautiful villages like Ronda, Marbella, Estepona, Fuengirola, Benalmádena, Torremolinos, Nerja (in the East Coast like Vélez-Málaga). Archidona, Antequera in the interior (a monumental village with so many Palaces and Churches). EL TORCAL DE ANTEQUERA, please watch in Internet what is EL TORCAL, (may be you vill not believe it). The situation is South-South (the best with no doubt) and South-East, You can see the África Coast in a clair day very well. We are connected by train to Madrid in two hours and 40 minutes, good haihways, etc. Many important enterprises come to Málaga to instalate like Google, Vodafone and others that I can´t remember. Málaga people are very open and nobody feels a foreigner. We have more than 30 Museums (including The Russian Museum of Saint Petersburg, the only one out side from Russia), etc. etc. The Police and Security is one of the best like in all Spain. I recommend you specially RONDA, an excepeptional village where you can feel like in a Fairy Tale. They say today that Málaga is THE CALIFORNIA OF EUROPE, but with a lot of very Old History since almost 3.000 years. Greetings from MÁLAGA La Bella, (Beautiful Malaga) LA CIUDAD DEL PARAÍSO (The City of Paradise), as the Literature Nobel Prix 1977 Vicente Aleixandre wrote.
Thank you for sharing! I am from TN and trying to move to a healthy city. I am very big on farm-to-table produce and longevity!
Viewing from Austin Texas. Love your videos. This one made me eat an apple!
Haha omg an apple per day keeps the dr away 🙃😛
Eres una gran embajadora de España,
Te amamos❤️❤️❤️
Thank you 😊

Por algo dicen que es "La mijor terreta del mon".
LOVE your videos, thank you
Thank you so much
Antoanetta - Thank you for your vlogs. I'm in Boston right now but looking forward to my move to Europe. Ciao.
Not sure if you mention this fact in your video: Since 2019, Valencia is the new FAO World headquarters for urban sustainable feeding. FAO is a UN bureau focussed in food and agriculture
Oh no … the UN 😵💫🙄
YOU ARE AMAZING.......THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR MAKING VIDEOS
Thank you 😊
Excelente video sobre Valencia, me ha encantado.
Gracias. 👍
Gracias
Viewing from Seattle area. Great video, thanks!
Thanks for watching
One of my most favorite cities of all!
And clean
I live in Kansas City, Missouri, about as far from an ocean as you can get, but lots of beautiful lakes.
Hello and welcome to my channel
Yeah, the weather in Valencia, the entire mediteannean coast is amazing! in the north and center of Spain it is another story, winters can be very cold, and the summers very hot! I'm from Madrid, but my family is from a small town in Castile, close to Burgos :)
Spain is healthy overall. Greetings!
Health would be a pretty good reason to live somewhere. Thanks for the video👍🏼
One of the most important reasons!!!
I just discovered your channel and I love it, you are truly lucky to live in Valencia. Greetings from Los Angeles
Living in Berlin. Dreaming of Valencia! Soon soon we hope to move!
Welcome to my channel 😍 I love Berlin great city!
All the videos are good, very well elaborated and with good and correct information.
Now I know why I never left here 🤣😂
Saludos desde Valencia.
Oh haha thanks 😊
Great video! I enjoying them very much. Thank your making them, they are very informative. We're moving to Valencia from California by the end of March. Looking forward to it. Where in Valencia is this video? What part of town?
Oh good! I think Valencia will feel like a breath of fresh air 🤩
good date to move, or not, the fallas festival, blocked streets, many people, noise, but I think the good outweighs the bad, and if you didn't see it, it's a good experience.
I wish you the best of luck wherever you go.
Several areas of Valencia appear in the video, the center of Valencia included the central market and more, I should not specify more
@@Juan-xg4kr Thank you for your reply. We are actually arriving March 29th, in the evening. Sorry I was not specific when I asked where was the video filmed. Antoanetta was filming from the top of a building, what building, in what part of Valencia? Cross streets?
Qué apasionada eres en todo lo que haces, Antoanetta.
Antonetta no solo es la variedad alimentaria, África, Asia e Hispanoamérica tiene mucha variedad , pero le falta la salubridad. Empezando por el agua de riego, la recogida , la manipulación, el almacenaje, la distribución, la venta y preparación.
Todo eso y la cultura y el orden y la historia le da un conocimiento a los valencianos y vecinos de los alimentos del entorno que los hace más saludables.
Valencia fue durante siglos un reino, herederos de un pueblo del Mediterráneo los iberos, acostumbrados a recibir vía comercial marítima todas las influencias y conocimientos, de fenicios, griegos, cartagineses ,romanos y luego la civilización árabe de Siria , Damasco . Incluso comerciando con China .
El litoral del Este de Hispania , recibía todos los adelantos del mundo más evolucionado del Mediterráneo oriental y oriente medio.
Ahí está , Valencia, Alicante , Tarragona, Barcelona, Murcia y Almería y sur de Andalucía. Sobre todo.
Todo eso era civilización y cultura máxima.
Yes which is great! We owe everything to history, genetics and after that habits and discipline 😊
Interesting piont of views that you have Antonietta….. Ive lived in El Lay, as well as Españastan, and i must agree with you…….
Antoanetta, my Wife and I live in Tampa, Florida but look forward to retiring in Valencia in a couple of years.
Gracias por tus videos,, Yo soy de Málaga y creo que el nivel de vida en Málaga es muy parecido a Valencia,,, Tiene que venir a visitarnos!!👍👍👍👍👍👍👏👏👏👏👏👏
Hy there, nice to meet you nd thanks so much for sharing all of this info in your vlogs. Just recently, we decided to find our Home to spend the rest of our Lives in within the mediteranean coastal area of Spain,nd we're seriously thinkin' over our moving fase to Valencia from Belgium. Health care, sustainable living in a more or less atmospheric surroundings is worth taking the necessary steps. Nd so here we are, being busy with prepping important info. We feel lucky with having the chance by moving in a new, more healthy nd happier Life 🌞😍. Sweet greetz by Karin nd Patrick
Fantastic! I hope you improve your life here 😊 and enjoy Valencia. Greetings!
I love how she pronounces the "g" at the end of words, like being is "bee-inguh". Such a cute accent.
🤫
I was born and raised in North Pole Alaska I’m still a teenager right now but I can’t wait to get out of America at the moment I’m thinking about moving to either Spain or Italy but we will see how that goes
wawwww great news
Thank you
Wow! I had no idea that Valencia was the healthiest city in the world. Next year I am coming to both Valencia and Malaga to see which city would be best for me in retirement. I grew up in NYC and lived and worked there most of my adult life. I’m now living in Phoenix, AZ. I can’t wait to spend a month there and see what it’s like.
I can see myself eating in a great restaurant, walking to everything or taking the Metro, and sipping a glass of wine on the Mediterranean.
I live in Central California but we are leaving to live in Spain (God willing) hopefully by next year!! 🤗 And you convinced me even more!
Spain is friendly, sociable, very healthy in both nutritional and mental health, long-lived and safe.
I ❤️ Antoanetta.
Cherry Hill, New Jersey. About 10 miles from Center City, Philadelphia.
Welcome 😊
Antoanetta Valencia es tú ciudad definitivamente , jajaja ❤️
Yes 😛
@@ANTOANETTA un besazo bombón ❤️
Florida has a good lifestyle, but they eat very large portions followed by drinking. Driving is a must to get around. I am ready for the Valancia Lifestyle. I need 2 years and poof...I am there.
Valencia is waiting for you 😊
Ughhh, then why are you leaving us for another city?!!! I’ve been here for over 2 years and am so happy and love you reminding what a great decision I made 😂. We will miss you Antoanetta!
Just to visit 🤫
your second best video of youtube all times 😂
Thanks 😊
Yo vivo en Badajoz, una pequeña ciudad del suroeste de España, aquí también tenemos muchas horas de sol, los veranos son excesivamente calurosos, eso sí pero al ser una ciudad pequeña el ritmo de vida es más pausado, la gente vive mucho en la calle al igual que Valencia, sólo nos falta la playa

Hello and welcome to my channel
Aapke video bahut acchi hai bahut pasand hai aapke video very good nice 🇵🇰🤝
I'm just outside Downtown L.A. in smaller city 10-15 min in foothills, cleaner mountainous , less smog and car stress, but I don't think a persons body-system, makeup, disposition, health status, is not going to be programmed right away if they've just moved to Spain, and like magic, they're healthier. I believe the person who has been born and raised in Spain and has had it's great environment of the external things and childhood and lifetime exposure such things as sun, diet, food ingredients, exercise and good mood for years to shape him or her growing up as an adult will most likely have a long life expentency there. but a person who lets say, moves from the U.S. at middle age, to Spain, and has a multitude of problems physically that developed out of choice, or neglect, or genetics, like maybe a heart condition or diabetes, may have a longer time to see if a new external environment like this starts changing their physical bodily constitution for the better, .. it's possible though ..
In Europe they don't use hormones or certain chemicals on food production. They even banned meats coming from the UK because they use antibiotics when raising cattle. In the US and UK we are being fed poison.
So that alone explains why people are healthier and live longer in Spain.
Not only the food, it is the overall vibe, laid back aptitude, no rush hours. The elderly are included in all the social activities. It is totally a different approach. A spaniard living in Orange County CA. My son is in Valencia now.
You are right but I don't know if you know that the elderly have a higher health priority of medical check-ups and depending on their health they have diets, exercises and many other things prescribed by doctors that greatly improve their health.
Holaaa!, Yo soy del norte de España, y ya te dije que me gustaría pudieras ver el Norte de España. Te sorprenderá, también es muy bonito pero muy diferente a la costa mediterránea. Generalmente son ciudades muyyy limpias, Oviedo tiene hasta premios por ello, pero es normal ver parques para perros y algo de cacas de perro pero aquí es totalmente habitual recogerlas en bolsa por su amo., Concretamente en Burgos.
Tarragona te gustará,es una bonita Ciudad
I might visit thanks
I live in Écija, Andalucía.
No more advertising please. It won't be as nice when the whole world wants to live in Valencia;)
Awww 😊 but we want happy and healthy people!
Valencia isn't the healthiest city in the world but it's nice to think so, all those little farms in spain are the healthiest, where you get the chicken from your back yard and eggs and you have so many trees, the best fish is not in valencia, but Madrid, where it's shipped everyday by plane from the north of spain. We eat plenty of fish, yet, they also eat plenty of meat, from Lamb, Pork and other and yet, we live a very long life, even if smoking is crazy in Spain. Even today that they cut down drastically, people still smoke like there is no tomorrow. Number one cause of death.
The crux of the issue is the approach to being healthy which is diametrically different. In Europe, and certainly in the Mediterranean countries, health is a given, like a natural right that you can lose of course. But the default mode is to be healthy and everything is conducive to that. From the urban planning of the cities to the work-life balance and everything in between.
In America health is something that you gain, that you need to pay for, and quite handsomely more often than not. Everything conspires to this: from the quality of the produce, which let’s be honest is not great, to the access to health care. You just need to look at some of the tv ads; they nearly make it desirable to have one of those terrible illnesses so you get amazingly treated in hospital x or y. It’s ridiculous but it’s a business and to be profitable you need to depart from the point that you are not healthy (whether objectively true or not)
Agreed
I live in California and would love to move!!!
I keep hearing not to move to California. A lot of California moving to TN.
san jose costa rica
How much could health insurance cost in Valencia?
60€ month.
With these videos, I think that probably 50% of Americans will like to come to live in Spain, but would we have space for 165 million more of people ?
Im living in Valencia lol, I want to move here permanently haha
Yo vivo en Austin Texas y hace poco era una ciudad agradable, ahora la cantidad de miles Homeless que llegaron de California la han vuelto insegura, sucia, es horrible ver campamentos de homeless por toda la ciudad y basura por todas partes.
SF CA / Istanbul… Istanbul is better despite that it too has issues.
WHO no offence, but at moment, last ones anyone should be listening to. Although GREAT video thanks
🇪🇦❌🇪🇦
A esta no la sacan de valencia ni los Geos. Los valencianos tendrían que subvencionarle.
Singapore is enjoyable but watch out for racist Malays and so Caucasian are reminded often they are ''foreign'' despite the fact the system is based on English.. the level of racism gets extreme if you chance going over to Indonesia where the Malay-Mongols are currently carrying out a Genocide..
I think when you make broad statements of fact like this you need to back it up with actual proof and in my brief research I do not find Valencia as number 1...In fact, Lisbon and even Portugal in general come up before any city in Spain! Besides that Valencia is not a huge city and so to compare it with bigger cities is difficult...Sure it was WHO? Anyhow, you are biased towards Valencia and I am towards Lisbon...ALL OF IT SO GREAT! I actually prefer Andalusia, but honestly it's all fabulous!! wink wink
Andalusia is very nice
@@ANTOANETTA I am getting married soon and looking at your jewelry and going to Seville for a honeymoon...We shall see!!!
@@ANTOANETTA I just got engaged...I am looking at your rings!!
@@tamaramadelin4831 congratulations 🤩 Let me know what you are interested in 😍
Can I contact you by email? Is the collection only in LA or can I see in Valencia...Not sure how to buy without trying on! I am interested in FAY, rose gold pear with black diamonds...Love it!!
even healthier is not to live in a city at all...
Views? It looks like a war zone.
WHO 😤👎🏼
