Single No More! Where to Move for Love in 2013
“If I stay here, I’ll forever be single. I just can’t seem to find the right person in this town.”
If this sounds like you, listen up. Today, Zillow unveiled the “In the Move for Love Index,” which names the best cities for young singles to relocate for love. If you’re a guy or girl, straight or gay, we’ve got you covered.
Zillow ranked the 150 largest U.S. cities based on the Zillow Rent Index versus the median income, walkability and the ratio and abundance of single males to single females aged 35 and under. The resulting cities are geographically diverse, with median rents ranging from $800 to $2,500 per month.
