There’s handful of places in the world that were believed to an have an unusually high number of extremely old people and it’s like Loma Linda, California, Okinawa , Japan, Sardinia, Italy, Nicoya, Costa Rica, and Icaria, Greece.
Turned out that Loma Linda (because of the Adventists) was the only legit one and the others were just a result of bad record keeping/fraud (people pretending dead relatives were alive to collect pensions).
