You have no idea how correct you are. I moved from a small town to a massive city and after a while I noticed there was a lot less overweight people and people were just generally in better shape.
Move somewhere where you don't need a car and can walk and take public transit. Humans are not built to drive around everywhere and only walk in parking lots.
I mostly have had to use windows servers over my career. I get so fucking happy when I can use a Linux server.
