I am thinking of moving to the Bay Area and am wondering how lucrative dating life is there for 30 something straight women.

I have read many articles, year after year, that claim SF and SJ are two of the best cities in which to meet men. I was wondering what you all think.

Like most women, I am interested in quality men - educated, intelligent, respectful, gentleman etc...

Any thoughts/experience from either gender?

Thanks!

You got to be joking right?

Dancingdoll I think you will meet some attractive and down to earth men in the bay area. Just be selective and you'll be fine I'm sure.

Oh, there's a veeeerry long thread on this from a while back.

Do a little search on the SF board regarding "dating scene" and you'll find way more information than you'd ever thought! (And don't pay any attention to the folks that have never even been to San Francisco)

Great for dating. However if marriage is your ultimate goal, be mindful of two things. The rate of marriage is relatively low and the average age of first marriage is relatively high. Part of those stats are those who never wed. Of course flip side is, for 30 and on up, there is a larger pool as a result.

I've heard 1 in 5 men in SF are gay. I've actually read it is one of the worst places to meet men, not surprisingly.

The men are either gay, homophobic (so don't move here), closet geeks who don't get out much or there are those who can't afford the lifestyle here. I have many 30 something single, smart, beautiful women in city who haven't found much luck.

Try San Diego-- the odds there are much much better there. Good luck!
