Single in America? These Are the Best Places to Be

Almost half of US adults are unmarried, but WalletHub wants to change that. With the goal "to help America's singles find love," the site compared living costs, including the cost of restaurant meals and movie tickets; the availability of recreational activities; the share of singles; and more in the 150 most populated US cities, "plus at least two of the most populated cities in each state." Rest assured, there are love-making opportunities from coast to coast, and still time to find a date to bring home for Thanksgiving—unless you'd rather be self-partnered.
