Maybe "slimmest" would be the best term
Fittest? I don't think so
I bet you we have one of the highest smoking populations and least active. LOL

However, i will say that the chinese food is better than most places in gvrd and there's nowhere else where you can find so much asian food, in such variety, within such a close proximity, as in richmond. get some taiwanese food, cross the street have some sushi, cross the street have a hk cafe, cross the street have shanghai food.

They use bmi cuz it's cheap and easy.. and i guess easy to understand for the average fat joe. Actually testing the broad population is a little difficult to do.
don't look too much into it, but since a low percentage of ppl actually bulk up, you can use it to find out in which region of the country the fat fucks reside, generally speaking

It doesn't tell you anything at all, generally or specifically. It is completely and utterly useless to say one city has more people who weight less than another.

So if you hold all other factors equal and one region has higher average BMI over another, that tells you no information?
And if you compare BMI of children (or adults) over time periods, and the trend is up, then that also tells you no information?
Obesity has always been measured by BMI and probably will be for awhile. It's known to be flawed and inexact, but it's meant to be a general measure of a population, not individuals. You need a little creativity to see past its deficiencies, but not that much. C'mon.....   | |

I would like to see the list of slimmest cities and the corresponding percentage of Asian or Chinese that live there.
I think Asians are genetically predisposed to not be as likely to get fat.

Whereas those (races?) that lived where food was scarce seem to get fat easily. North American aboriginals and black people?

All that map above is showing is the rough percentage of Asian vs White vs Black people in the population. More Asians in BC and Ontario, and Blacks concentrated in the Southern states. These studies are so transparent and the results can largely be explained by race.

Low cost food is all refined garbage carbs and modified oils, with huge portions. Studies have been done on native populations in the US, where they see a sudden and drastic increase in average body weight and diabetes (something they NEVER would get) after being moved into reservations.
One study in Australia took some overweight poor aboriginals and moved them back to their original land, to eat their normal diet (meat, foraged fruits, vegetables) and of course they immediately lost weight.
You could take a 'diabetes' map and overlay it with a 'poor areas' map and they would probably correlate quite well.
And this is not to say that all fat people are poor, or all poor people are fat, but poor people tend to have the worst diets.
