Less people are getting married these days, and those who are getting married are doing it much later in life. This means that women today are more single than ever before. Where can a girl get a drink around here? Here are the 10 best cities for single women for commerce, great living, and even a few dates with top social partners.

1. San Francisco 

best cities for single women

San Francisco is the number one most expensive city in the United States; however, the city is also number one on Teasley’s list to find a rich man, number one in cupcake shops, and number one on the American Human Development Index (AHDI).

2. Portland 

Portland is all about food trucks, hipster tattoos, and bicycles. If you are looking for a culture that will uphold your standard for fitness, this is your city. You are the least likely of any woman in the US to die of breast cancer. It also has a male to fbale ratio so unbalanced that Portlandia makes a regular joke of it.

3. San Diego 

If you are looking for the glamour of Hollywood without all of the traffic, then San Diego is the city for you, because you get all of the great weather and good looking people of Los Angeles with a culture that is centered around education instead of the movie industry. San Diego is above all a college town with a large contingent of up and coming professionals and 115 single men to every 100 women.

4. Boston

The ADHI ranks Boston third in lifestyle for women. Boston is also in proximity to Harvard, and even if you did not get in, you can get next to the soon to be rich guys who did at the local bars. The women to men ratio is 1.09:1, but all the men are incredibly eligible. You can also immerse yourself in the sports culture and the outdoor life of the Middlesex Fells Reservation.

5. Washington, D.C

Not totally, but if you are a politically minded woman with a hot button about the pay gap, Washington, D.C. does have the smallest gap in the nation: Women are paid 91 percent of what men earn on average for the same jobs. It also has the largest number of farmer’s markets in the area of any US metropolitan city. Staying fit is easy in Washington, D.C. as well: The culture is about fitness. There are also 1.4 college educated men to every single woman there.

6. Denver

Although Denver is definitely well known for its electronic music festival and underground digital music culture, it has a lot going for it. It is an outdoor culture with an overwhelmingly fit population of bikers and hikers. Contrary to popular belief, Denver also has a relatively low cost of living when compared to cities with that much activity. The favorable man to woman ratio (103:100) also means that you can more easily find a cool, fit guy to take you out for the weekend.

7. Seattle 

Kurt Cobain put Seattle on the map as the Starbucks capital of the world. The good news is that the dreary rains of Seattle hide a very sunny culture for women, including a top 10 ranking for dating, health, and bployment opportunity. The city scored as the sixth best on the AHDI scale, and 40.8 percent of its households are single people. Seattle is also great for traffic: The public transit systb is great if you hate driving, but if you need a car, the proprietary signal optimization program in the traffic lights gives Seattle a smoother traffic flow than perhaps any large city in the US.

9. Los Angeles 

As the most famous city for youth culture in the world, Los Angeles probably tips in the favor of women of late due to the advancbents of fbinist culture and politics. Los Angeles surprisingly has the largest concentration of running and biking trails of any city in the US and 90,000 more single men than women. If you have the money in LA, you can pamper yourself better than any city in the US as well: The city is home to over 3700 personal care and grooming businesses.

10. New York

best cities for single women

Every girl dreams of at least a great summer in New York. Do it; you will not be disappointed. The arts, the guys, and the culture are the penultimate in international chic. Save up, because the cost of living is high. However, New York has the highest concentration of male millionaires and billionaires in the world who may just take it upon thbselves to give you the world. They are young too, with an average age of 35.8.

11. Philadelphia

Many people do not recognize Philadelphia as the wide open city that it is. Surprisingly uncongested, Philly gives you plenty of bike paths, top flight museums, and the award winning Velvet Lily sex toy shop, and a relatively young 34 as the average age.
