Looking for Love in All the Right Places: Best City for Singles

Memphis, TN

What is the best city in America for single adults?

With more and more Americans choosing to wait until their late 20s and early 30s for marriage, it’s no wonder there are an estimated 109 million single adults in America. That’s nearly half the population!

With so many singles on the market, you’d think it would be relatively easy to meet new people, but for many adults, it’s not that simple. In addition to a large portion of time spent at work, many may experience a lack of nightlife and events in their area which allow for opportunities to meet new people. So where should you live in America if you’re looking for love?

As it turns out, the Birthplace of Rock N’ Roll and the BBQ Capital of the World is the place to be - Memphis, TN. What makes Memphis such a great place for singles? From events and entertainment to nightlife and eclectic neighborhoods, there are plenty of reasons to love Memphis.
