Best town is the best place to get outside and be active. Nothing to back it up but I would bet that the life expectancy in these noteworthy towns/cities is higher than somewhere that you are stuck inside with nothing to tempt you to go outside and be active.

They're also making the assumption that outdoor and nature type pursuits are the only possible forms of entertainment, or things that keep you moving. Cities with parks, walking paths and vibrant areas to wander around in could easily meet those same goals.
This list is the best places to live if you are the type of person who would subscribe to outdoors magazine.
