　With its large population, the prospect of an aging society have recently been identified as a major concern in China. We considered that the lifestyle of university students influences their health during their school years and later in life. An anonymous questionnaire was conducted, aimed at providing an understanding of the lifestyles and self-esteem levels of university students. It was administered between March and July 2015, to 406 female Chinese university students in three Chinese communities. These included 150 students in Hohhot (Inner Mongolia), 175 in Shanghai, and 81 in Dalian.

　Overall, it was a desirable lifestyle to have few students who consumed alcohol and smoked. However, 32.8% (133/406) of the students were underweight (BMI < 18.5), 21.9% (89/406) exercised, and 45.1% (183/406) used the Internet for more than three hours a day.

　The Rosenberg Self-Esteem Scale (RSES) score of the 406 students was 29.14 ± 4.04. A residual analysis revealed that a significantly greater number of Hohhot students gave first preference to the university than did the Shanghai students. The RSES score of the Hohhot students was lower than that of the Shanghai students.

　In total, 21.9% (89/406) of the students in Hohhot, Shanghai, and Darian had exercise habits, while 10.0% (15/150) of the students in Hohhot and 34.3% (60/175) in Shanghai exercised.

　Overall, 53.7% (218/406) of the students in the three communities belonged to after-school activities, while 41.3% (62/150) of the students in Hohhot and 64.0% (112/175) in Shanghai were involved in such activities. The analysis also showed that the Hohhot and Shanghai students' performance was significantly lower and higher respectively, in exercise habits and after-school activities.

　Overall, 14.5% (59/406) of the students had part-time work, while 10.0% (15/150), 22.9% (40/175), and 4.9% (4/81) of the students in Hohhot, Shanghai and Dalian worked, respectively. Dalian had the fewest students doing part-time work.
