The Top 10 Most Single Cities in the US

Valentine’s Day is like Marmite. You either love it or hate it. With V-Day just around the corner, we’re awaiting an Instagram influx of #CoupleGoals and #BaeDidGood posts, from girls gushing over how amazing their other half is. Ngl, us single gals (or just the non-gushy amongst us) prefer to stay OFF the ‘gram on February 14th, while we Netflix and chill…alone. We’d 100% rather have a self-care evening than a throwback V-Day date with our ex… 

Sometimes, for all us single ladies, Valentine’s Day can make it feel like we’re the ONLY ones in the world not coupled up. Now, while we’re well aware this isn’t in fact true, (shout out to all the single pringles!) we had no idea how many people were ACTUALLY single! 

Have you ever wondered how many other single people there are in the US like, right now? Or more specifically, in your city?! Well, we’ve done some digging and we now know ALL the juicy deets. If you fancy finding out just how many single gals and guys there are in your city, then keep on scrolling…

We rounded up data to find out which city in the US has the most singletons. Check out the top 10 most single cities in the US to find out whether yours made the list.

The Top 10 Most Single Cities in the US | EGO

  1. Hartford, Connecticut – 48.20%

Hartford’s the capital of Connecticut and more importantly, home to some of our fave Gilmore Girls! It’s no surprise Hartford ranks so highly, the bustling city will be full of young Loreli’s living their best single life, being WAY too busy for a man, or waiting for their very own Luke Danes to arrive…

  1. Trenton, New Jersey – 48%

Another state capital full of sassy single ladies, we love to see it! Whether this city’s single ladies are busy bossin’ it at work, killin’ it in the gym or shopping until they drop, we can certainly see why they wouldn’t have time for boys!

  1. Jackson, Mississippi – 43.70%

Considering Jackson is the most populous city in the state of Mississippi, it may be a lil more challenging to track down the singles! The busy city is full of culture, so maybe these babes are just too busy being educated to date. 

  1. Providence, Rhode Island – 43.50%

Home to Taylor Swift’s luxury holiday home, we bet Rhode Island is full of single girls living their best lives! If Taylor’s infamous 4th of July parties are anything to go by, we’d love to party in Providence.

  1. Boston, Massachusetts – 42.90%

Best known for its famous baked beans, we weren’t expecting Boston to rank so highly on the singles list! Based on the fact Boston is also considered one of the healthiest cities in the US, boasting a high quality of life, perhaps it’s best to stay single girls…

  1. Montgomery, Alabama – 39.50%

Overflowing with stylish bars and culture, Montgomery may sound like the perfect place to keep us singles busy, however it’s actually ranked amongst one of the worst places for singles to live…

  1. Atlanta, Georgia – 39.40% 

If you’re in search of a sporty single, Atlanta may just be the perfect place to start your mission! Famed for their thriving sports teams and cool AF street art, we bet Atlanta is FULL of dreamy single men…

  1. Albany, New York – 37.40%

Is it any wonder that Albany boasts a host of singles? There’s SO much to see, so much to do, so much opportunity, the list goes on! We’re kinda jealous of all the guys and girls living their best single lives there right now…

  1. Saint Paul, Minnesota – 36.50%

Overflowing with quirky coffee shops and boozy brunch destinations, we can see why the population of Saint Paul is a lil too distracted to date. Betty Danger’s Country Club looks like a DREAM girl’s night out! From pink cocktails, to ferris wheels, what’s not to love?

  1. Columbia, South Carolina – 36.20%

Full to the brim with thriving young professionals, Columbia could well be the perfect place to find a single businessman, if that’s your type! We bet the girl bosses ruling this city are FAR too busy climbing their way up the career ladder to bother with boys. 

Give your singleton shoedrobe a well needed refresh with the new in heels, sneakers and slippers you NEED rn
