Summary: "Unhealthy habits are contagious". This is a quote from the article, proposing that living next to obese people can increase the chance of yuou gaining weight. Also, if you live in a poorer area, you are more at risk of being obese. Alot of factors in our lives depend on our enviroments. If we have no access to fresh produce, that could affect us in a harmful way. Even moving to a nicer neighborhood can lower the chance of obesity. The top 8 "artery- clogging" as CNN called it, cities are:
1. Detroit, MI
2.Fort Wayne, IN
3. Lubbock, TX
4. New Orleans, LA
5. Dallas, TX
6.Baton Rouge, LA
7. Tulsa, OK
8. Louisville, KY


Critique: I'm just glad Phoenix isn't on that list:) I had no clue that who you live next to affects you.... Man, but my neighbors are weird! Haha Just Kidding........

Impact: Well, those cities are obviously impacted by this news. They probably had no idea their ateroies were clogged. :)
