A new ranking tells us what we already know. Although we most definitely did not need an official survey to tell us this, New York was just ranked the very worst city for dating across the U.
Duh, right? The survey was conducted by researchers from FetishFinder, who collected data on six key factors while analyzing the 20 largest cities in the U. The metrics include the population of single people, the likelihood of marriage, the annual divorce rate, the rate of individuals actively searching for a relationship, quality of life and cost of living.
This ranking is due to New York's high cost of living, low quality of life, high divorce rates, and, despite its large single population, the lowest number of people actively searching for a relationship.
New Yorkers have been complaining about finding love in the Big Apple since time immemorial, with countless TV shows and movies using the plight of local singles as creative inspiration Sex and the City! When Harry Met Sally! That being said, we are a bit disheartened: why should dating be so hard in one of the greatest cities in the world?
