According to the strength training resource and news website BarBend.com, Hopkinton is the 12th-fittest city in Massachusetts.

Contributing factors in the analysis include exercise opportunities, access to healthy food, air pollution, drinking water violations, physical inactivity, obesity, smoking and more.
