"AMERICA'S BEST CITY TO FIND LOVE" FOR 2017

High Marks For Dallas, Charlotte, Atlanta, Minneapolis

Struggles Continue For Denver, Philadelphia, San Francisco, Phoenix

In Year-End Dating Awards

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE: SANTA MONICA, CA (November 27, 2017) - Milwaukee, Wisconsin has been named "America's Best City To Find Love" for 2017 by The Great Love Debate, a nationally-touring series of live Town Hall-style forums on love, dating, and relationships.



Using a formula that considered the opinions and demographic data from over 62,000 singles who attended the tour's live shows in over 80 North American cities, and the millions who listened to the top-rated Great Love Debate with Brian Howie podcast; Milwaukee received high marks for the attractiveness of its population, the vibrancy of its social scene, and the confidence within its dating community.



On the opposite end of the dating spectrum, Denver was named "America's Worst City to Find Love"- narrowly beating San Francisco for the dubious distinction.



“As we traveled the country for these fun, feisty, honest, and interactive debates on the current state of the date, we encountered few constants - each city has its own unique dating dynamic,” explains Brian Howie, Great Love Debate host and “America’s Leading Dating Influencer.” “Though the current love landscape is unquestionably rocky across the map, we are thrilled to shine a light on certain cities that stood out in 2017.”

The complete list of 2017 honorees:



BEST CITY TO FIND LOVE

MILWAUKEE

It’s like Chicago without the downside. Vibrant, social, welcoming – and a city where men & women have no fear of socializing together. Even before they start drinking.

Honorable Mention: CHARLOTTE

Booming job market, a city in the South that’s not too southern, new talent every day, and a sense of communal pride make the Queen City a hotbed for hot dates.



WORST CITY TO FIND LOVE

DENVER

They say the saddest thing is wasted talent. Friendly, beautiful women, great weather, plenty to do – and home to the most passive men in America. The Mile High City social scene resembles an awkward school dance - women standing in a pack in the middle, flannel-wearing bros on the outside sippin’ their beers and stroking their beards.

Honorable Mention: SAN FRANCISCO

Bay Area men believe that SF women think they are too good for them. The women’s response? We are too good for you.



MOST DATEABLE WOMEN

DALLAS

Big hair. Big personality. Big...Fun? Dallas women are fearless, bold, sexy, and up for anything. Just ask them.



MOST DATEABLE MEN

MINNEAPOLIS

Tall? Check. Nice? Check. Chivalrous? Check. Intelligent? Check. Check out men of the Twin Cities, ladies.



LEAST DATEABLE WOMEN

PHOENIX

Go ahead guys, offer to take her on a date. She will take that offer and shop it around till she can find a better one.



LEAST DATEABLE MEN

PHILADELPHIA

The women of Philly: “The guys here are such jerks.”

The men of Philly: “Is that a problem for you?”



MOST IMPROVED CITY

ATLANTA

New neighborhoods, improved economy, and a renewed sense of civic pride has resulted in an influx of young, hopeful singles.

Honorable Mention LOS ANGELES

Uber & Lyft have transformed nightlife in the City of Angels more than any other city. And LA is no longer a one-industry town. Now that cute guy at the bar? He is just as likely to work in tech as work in TV.



CITY MOST LIKELY TO GET YOU ENGAGED

WASHINGTON, DC

Yes, people like to have fun in their 20s in the nation’s capital - but settling down is seen as the smartest career move in the city where smart career moves are everything.



BEST NEW DATING TREND

MEN DOING THE WORK

There is a bigger pool of curious, vulnerable, introspective, willing-to-please men in America than at any time in history. Recognize them. Appreciate them.



WORST NEW DATING TREND

VIRTUAL PORN

We already use technology to date. Now we’re going to date the technology?

.

BEST CITY TO GET YOUR FREAK ON

PORTLAND

An eclectic mix of kink & craft beer, Rip City is ripe for the sexually adventurous.

Honorable Mention: AUSTIN

Plenty of married couples working hard at Keeping Austin Weird…by looking for an adventurous third.



BEST DATING SITE

EARTH

That’s right, the planet. Time to get your head out of your apps. Instead of swiping right, turn your head right – your best prospects are most likely right next to you.
