The article references the healthcare at the costs, but doesn't provide any details.
Does anyone know of studies showing life expectancy at the coasts or by state instead of country aggregate?

TLDR; Coasts being always superior isn't really an accurate depiction. Hawaii (1), CA and Connecticut (tie for 3 and 4) definitely are coastal, but also rich. Minnesota (2) is definitely a surprise for me. NC, SC, and Georgia aren't rank that high and FL is marginally higher.
A lot of states with the highest life expectancy are among the least obese states. That means there is something about the lifestyle there that promotes better health.
