A lot of people move because there is a lack of good job or education opportunities in their area. Is it really so far fetched for some people to consider moving because there is a lack of dating opportunities or potential partners in an area as well?
It's just that for curiosity sake, I looked up demographic statistics of my hometown and county, and I learned that in my area, only about 5% of the population are girls ages 18-24 (my age range). When you whittle it down to available, attractive girls ages 18-24, it's definitely gonna be a lot smaller.
I've had absolutely no luck dating after coming back home from college. The small population around here and living in the suburbs doesn't help my chances of meeting a girl either. It's really forcing me to consider how much longer I want to stay around here.

I would not move anywhere for just ONE reason now that I'm older because lets say you move to a better place to find more opportunity to meet women the catch might be that you have poor job opportunity's. Girlfriend+no money= your screwed.
If anything, find a place that you like and have good job opportunity's then find a girl in your area or simply import her.
One of my colleagues did this and it worked out great for her. She lived here and had no luck meeting nice guys. She did the research and found that Colorado had a much better ratio of men to women in her age range, so she got a job there, and moved. Within one year she met her husband to be. She's now happily married with a couple of kids - just what she always wanted. If you're going to do it, do your research, and get a job before moving. Best wishes.
"Location, location, location" Yeah, if I were totally content with my dating status I would move in a heartbeat for better opportunities. It's a darn good thing I am content cause I live in a dry place, but content doesn't mean I wouldn't move with the proper motivation.
haha It's funny that you mentioned this because a friend of mine is moving to Denver next week with a friend of hers and she calls it Manville because the ratio of men to women is 7:1 (I didn't check that but she said she did). She's going to have fun hunting.

For her, but being a dude must suck there.
Anyway, I live in New York state. Anyone know any cities or towns in NY (except for NYC) or atleast the tristate area that has a good proportion of 18-24 year old girls?

Yes, I understand where you're coming from entirely. I'm moving for a whole host of reasons and while I'd never move just for that, I'd be lying if I said it wasn't a consideration. My old college roommate told me that was one of the reasons that she was moving out of state. She had come down here for school and found the dating scene dismal. She just felt like she would never meet anyone decent down here. She moved, got a good job, then met a guy and now she's married with kids, so it worked for her. Ppl in my area love to party, drugs and alcohol are a serious problem. Ppl also tend to be very plastic, materialistic, and superficial. I actually talked to a guy today who mentioned this so it's not just women having a hard time. Of course I'm not saying this applies to everyone as no area is 100% bad or good. This is only my and some of my friend's experiences. I know I am looking forward to dating in my new state.
