Depends upon your survey source and definition for healthiest.
SF and San Diego are typically both on top.

The healthiest city residents in America live in San Jose and the least healthy in New Orleans, according to a new study released by Sperling's BestPlaces and vitamin-maker Centrum.
The Centrum Healthiest Cities Study is the first-ever comprehensive "health report card" of U.S. cities to be based on key factors of health status, nutrition and exercise, mental health and life balance that can contribute to overall well-being.
According to the Sperling "report card," in the nationwide battle for healthiest cities, West easily trumps East.
California boasts five cities in the top 10 — San Jose, San Francisco, Oakland, Sacramento and the Orange County area — plus San Diego in the No. 12 spot. Seattle (4), Salt Lake City (5) and Denver (9) also made strong showings in the West.

Not Chicago. We are the worst city in the worst state in the entire country in everything... oddly we are run entirely by corrupt democrat politicians... from watching the National news, I thought they were extinct.
