6044148589_3a9018f45b_b.jpgAre you financially capable of raising a kid or two in the city? Great, because apparently SF is the best city to do it in (raising the kid, we mean). Parents Magazine ranked San Francisco as the Healthiest City for families. "Parents Magazine's ranking of San Francisco as the nation's most family-friendly city demonstrates that our commitment to the environment and healthy and sustainable living are helping to attract and keep families in our city," Mayor Ed Lee said in a statement. How'd SF score the top spot? Healthy foods in our schools and access to parks and other outdoor activities. The city also got an A for medical care, an A- for family safety and an A+ for air and water quality.
