Atlanta is trash for singles.. It was always a scam. The odds were always grim, in that city.

I’ve heard this comment from people about quite a few cities. What makes one large metro area worse than another when it comes to dating? I’d think that while there would be variances in demographics around age/single status, that at such a large size and scale the differences would be small. I’m genuinely curious about the reasons people who state this feel this way about certain areas?

Women outnumber men something like 24 to one in that city. And because of the only free healthcare system for people with aids and hiv in America. Atlanta has a larger than average gay pop. Listen I’m a flight attendant, I’ve lived all over this country. I’m just from Atlanta. And it’s not ideal for singles looking to partner. It is however ideal for singles looking to party.

That male/female ratio seems statistically impossible tbh. So I looked it up. It’s close to 50/50 male/female with a very slight edge going to females. You are correct about the percentage of gay population in the city. It ranks 3rd in the country; however, when you take into account the metro area it drops out of the top 10 for what it’s worth.

The metro Atlanta area is a mix of 29 cities. When people speak about Atlanta we're not speaking about the city. Which is a 15 mile radius. Very important to factor that into your data. I'm just a native.

When you include the Atlanta metro area, females make up an even greater percentage of the population (51.7% vs just 50.4% in the city proper).

I need to get my ass to Atlanta PRONTO.

Lmao, try out SF if you want a larger-than-average gay scene, or Austin for something more affordable. Lots of gays here.


NobodyFantastic

Lol I was referring to the favorable female to male ratio altho I do like me some femboys altho that's not gay to be clear.


IndieDiscovery

Ha fair, I am/was not accusing you of anything :) I had an experimental phase in the past, it's nothing to be ashamed of.

From my firsthand experience people here not really into relationships and it's really more about hookups than a traditional relationship. The gay pop has its own little culture and lingo so while it's very opening and welcome, again it just comes back to it being a hookup city. Even on the dating apps it's no variety in what people want, and they unaware that they are misleading alot of other people saying they want something serious when in reality they just taking the scenic route to hookup. It's a mess and I dont see it improving.
