１１７、The following appeared in a newspaper feature story.
There is now evidence that the relaxed manner of living in small towns promotes better health and greater longevity1 than does the hectic2 pace of life in big cities. Businesses in the small town of Leeville report fewer days of sick leave taken by inpidual workers than do businesses in the nearby large city of Mason City. Furthermore, Leeville has only one physician for its one thousand residents, but in Mason City the proportion of physicians to residents is five times as high. And the average age of Leeville residents is significantly higher than that of Mason City residents. These findings suggest that people seeking longer and healthier lives should consider moving to small communities.
