Healthy city

Healthy city

Healthy city is an idiom employed, usually for political purposes, by public health advocates who seek more attention to urban economics and urban infrastructure, e.g. mass transit and street reclaiming. It is usually relative, i.e. a healthier city is what is being advocated - use of the term healthy in advocacy implies the city is presently not healthy, and that is why attention is required.
