Living near the ocean is linked to longer life expectancy in both urban and rural areas.
People near large inland water bodies tend to have shorter lifespans—but only in cities.
Environmental factors like heat, air quality, elevation, and income help explain the difference.
Rural communities near lakes and rivers may still benefit from their local blue spaces.
