Southwest Florida is a certified Blue Zones Community! The Blue Zones Project encourages changes in our community that lead to healthier options. When an entire community participates, small changes contribute to huge benefits for all: lowered healthcare costs, improved productivity, and a higher quality of life. The Blue Zones Project brings residents, business owners, and other key community organizations together to focus on improving the well-being for all – ultimately making Southwest Florida one of the healthiest places to live, work, and play.
