Adults living in Manhattan Beach, Redondo Beach and Hermosa Beach – “the Beach Cities” – in Los Angeles County are estimated to save $182.4 million on healthcare costs each year thanks to lower rates of obesity, diabetes and smoking there.

This is very revealing. But the reporting that follows is startling - emphasis in bold is mine:

Gallup estimates Beach Cities residents spend $95.3 million more on healthcare each year because of obesity, diabetes and smoking than what would be expected if all residents were of normal weight, did not have diabetes and did not smoke. By comparison, the estimated extra expenditures for the Beach Cities would nearly triple, jumping to $277.7 million annually, if these indicators mirrored the national rates; so for residents of Hermosa Beach, Manhattan Beach and Redondo Beach, their collective high level of wellbeing represents $182.4 million in healthcare cost savings.

More money spent on healthcare ends up saving costs. Imagine that!

It sounds like maintaining good health is… beneficial on so many levels. Maybe sound healthcare policies should be adopted everywhere in the USA.

We’re also talking about rich people who can do things like hire personal trainers.

Median household income in Manhattan Beach is $187,217 and that includes all the people doing things like renting the rich people’s guest houses in the back of their mansion. Which is a big thing in L.A.

The money going in is what’s important to note. By paying for health up front, by putting in the time and money, people will pay less for a better quality of life in the long run. This happened in a rich region because it’s one of the only places that could escape the crushing chronic economy over a broad population. But the ultimate point is that communities can save literally tens of thousands per person by paying hundreds.
