David Marquez is quoted in WTTW article about physical activity in Illinois
Introduction
David Marquez was quoted in the WTTW article, "Nearly 25% of Illinois Residents Don’t Exercise, CDC Report Finds."
Those racial disparities could be related to where people live, and how safe and economically stable their neighborhoods are, according to Marquez. In Chicago, he said, “people are living in areas where you can’t go outside for a walk because you might not feel safe. It just makes being healthy far more difficult than if you have money and resources and less crime.”
