Three thriving economies top our list of greatest cities for dating: Austin, TX, Nashville, TN, and San Francisco, CA. Cities with huge populations and robust employment markets placed top on our list overall, with plenty of tech centers taking center stage. These are all great places to find a mate. The study's authors controlled for factors such as population size, unemployment rate, number of marriages registered at government offices and their findings were consistent across multiple analytical methods. They concluded that "Nashville, Austin and San Francisco are the most dateable cities in America." They also noted that cities with large numbers of college students tended to rank lower on the list because there are just not enough people to go around. For example, Boulder, CO came in 10th place on the list but its campus community makes it one of the most popular destinations for meeting people. Similarly, Honolulu came in 21st place but has the largest percentage of college-aged adults of any city on the list. There are of course other factors that come into play when trying to decide where you should go to find a date. If you're looking for romance or a good time, maybe you shouldn't move to Boulder. If you want to meet people from different cultures, explore new ideas or simply have some fun, then these are all great places to look.
