Title says it all. Looking for a city that has elible black men to marry. I am from pensacola and everyone marries their high school sweetheart. Not much competition here as well.
Portland, San francisco, Tuscon, El Paso, San Antonio, San Diego, Santa Fe, and just about any city in the Dakotas (sarcasm) ....I'm part black but wow way to narrow your options, race shouldn't be the number one factor for your love life, grow up.
I think you know what cities have the most successful for African Americans, it's not rocket science.

How is that a bad thing that the OP knows exactly what she wants? I could easily say that instead of narrowing her options, you're asking the OP to lose focus and be too general in her mate selection.
And why shouldn't race be a big factor for your love life? We're talking about the most intimate relationship in life, here. There's nothing wrong if you only prefer to date within your race.

What's with the grammar Nazi stuff? It was a barely noticeable typo. Kinda sorta like how "etc" in your reply lacks the requisite period following it
OP: New York, Atlanta, DC, Philadelphia, Chicago, Houston, Dallas, Miami, Los Angeles, Charlotte, New Orleans, Baltimore--you have quite a few options, and each city has different types of black men that run the gamut from all socioeconomic walks of life.

"She take my money, when I'm in need
Yeah she's a triflin' friend indeed
Oh, she's a gold digger, way over town
That digs on me"
Atlanta has the most professional college educated men. Most professional men and women hang with each other here. Homeless people, gang members, skinheads, gays, lesbians, transsexuals, Trump supporters,etc do not hang with professionals here or in any other city. Rich people do not hang with homeless people. Gang members do not hang with church folks, etc. I said that to say that normally when I say Atlanta is a good place for black women to marry the first thing people will say is "Atlanta has a lot of gay men" well gay people live in every city and it is just as many lesbians here but you never here people say "Lets too many lesbians in Atlanta for a single black male" but with that being said the marriage rate across the board is decreasing in every ethnic group in the US. They will also say that is it 12 women to every guy and that's a lie. Its even. Look at the census report to see for yourself. They will say "Its 12 women to 1 guy because all the guys are gay" but they never talk about the lesbians, strippers, crazy women, etc so those numbers even out. Whatever dating problem you hear about in one city is in the next city, generally speaking. Generally I recommend a woman looking to get married fast to move to a small to medium large city with a large military presence which means it is a lot more men than women and plus men may marry there quicker because they get more money in the military if they are married. If you dont mind the military lifestyle move to Norfolk, VA.
If you move to Atlanta you can get married but you have to follow the rules to get married....Here are the rules to getting married in Atlanta for a black woman....
- Dont tell all your relationship business to your female friends
- Dont expect to move to Atlanta and date all the rich men and get married to Tyler Perry, Usher, Allen Iverson, etc, etc,etc because that isnt going to happen.
- Go to where the professional people hang out. Smile and have positive energy around yourself. If you go out do not sit at the table with your girls all night and then complain about men not approaching you. We have tons of events to go to weekly for you to look for your match.
- Learn how to cook. Most men and men that move to Atlanta want a traditional southern woman, generally speaking.
- Learn about the venues, weekly events, happy hours, networking events, etc that are here and go to those and you will be good. Also outside of Atlanta and DC no other city offers has many events and opportunities for professionals black people. An example this Sunday we are having the Red Tie Soiree here. Its it will be over 1000+ well dressed professionals in business suits having a good time. Some photos are listed below.
The good thing about Atlanta is we have multiple places to go to from happy hours to nightclubs that cater to your demographic so all you really have to do is go out to nightclubs, lounges, happy hours, networking events, go to meetups, etc WITH A APPROACHABLE AND GOOD ATTITUDE and you will not have any problems. And dont listen to the haters that will say "huh, Atlanta is just filled with gays and lesbians" because they do not hang with the straight people generally speaking so if you go to an event for professionals that is all that is going to be in there. Most women generally speaking could have been married but they are generally too picky. Most women will dismiss a handworking guy for a guy that isnt about shyt but then complain about men, generally speaking. I said that so say that I know a 30 year old black lady that moved here from Pittsburgh. Her second day here a guy approached her at Walmart. She wasn't going to give him the time of the day because "She just moved here" but she went ahead and gave him her number. 5 months later he proposed to her. By the time she went back to visit here family in Pittsburgh she brought her fiance with her. So the moral of the story is dont be too picky and only date guys that are 6'6, with a 6 pack, a PhD, with a million dollar home and a Bentley and you will not have any problems.
IMO is best cities for a black woman to get married has to have plenty of places that caters to professionals. You have to be able to go to places and have dozens of options to increase your chances. Its the same as looking for shoes. The more shoe stores that you go to will increase your chances of finding the shoes you are looking for. The first part of the dating process is to be able to go to places to meet professionals of the opposite sex. You go to several places, exchange numbers, go out on dates, narrow your choices down and boom!
Title says it all. Looking for a city that has eligible black men to marry. I am from Pensacola and everyone marries their high school sweetheart. Not much competition here as well.
I would look to the cities with a significant Black professionals population. DC, Baltimore, Chicago, Newark, Houston, Atlanta and Cleveland are good examples in my opinion and would choose accordingly to where you feel you can transfer your occupation easiest along with obvious financial considerations.
