I wouldn't trust that survey. It had Denver ranked #1 from 2004-2006

Now granted, I didn't live in Cow-town from 2004-2006, but Colorado is a guys state. The girls there were mostly not as appealing as they are in SoCal where they must take care of themselves. Ha! Also, I couldn't seem to find what there criteria is/was. I can imagine a line of guys in Denver standing around with their... well, anyway, I just wouldn't classify it that way.

It's also pretty nebulous in the fact that, say, Seattle for instance, had a LOT of freaky women of whom I would probably never date.

Sure, there's lots of singles, but are they what each individual finds "quality" singles. Hahaha!

I wanna see their criteria. "Single" doesn't count as a number generator IMO.

I agree. They also have Buffalo in there? Why? It is as though they just added up the numbers of single people, did a restaurant/club/etc pop density check and declared these places great to go to.

Yeah! What are the age brackets? I bet some Florida retirement cities (Hollywood FL) would rank up there!!!

Speaking of being single...

Floridagirl08 is on a distinguished road
JackSparrow, Florida does have some nice places for singles. Mostly around the college towns like Gainesville, Tallahassee, etc. Places where there are a lot of young people opposed to most of South Florida that is crawling with the living dead. But I always love to hear about polls. Because where do they get the people from? I do not think I have ever participated in or have asked to participate in a poll.

I was just making a point that Florida is a great example of where there's TONS of singles, and probably most that are 'single' wouldn't fit into MY criteria as eligible!

Alaska has a huge single population as well. They're mostly men. heh.

Southern Cal. has one of the worst imbalances of males to females in the US for a heterosexual male. I'd hate to imagine what the other cities on there are like.

OTOH, for a hetero woman or for a gay male, L.A.'s a great place due to the overabundance of males. But for a single hetero guy,it's more like Alaska.

I disagree. Stats? My findings are the exact opposite, but then, I'll speak from personal pimping experience.

Again, I'd be curious to see the numbers. I have more girlfriends and a greater pool of booty calls here in SoCal than I have had in the three other states where I lived. And they are definitely higher quality women as well (appearance, I can't speak for how shallow they are, because with women, do you really ever know ) hahaha

Well, for a RICH heterosexual male it's nowhere near as bad.

Women fall in love with their ears; the money is just a bonus.

BUT! I usually dress like a bum. And I drive a black pick-up truck. If you saw me, and talked to me on the street, you'd never know I have any money. In fact, the only reason you know I have any money on here is because I have disclosed my information a few times in order to benefit other posters.

Having money won't get you women. Women fall in love with their ears.
