Living in Lake Charles or Mississippi doesn’t count.
BR is an absolute dump in a state that’s a dump and I was born in raised in this state. But I’ve been lucky enough to have travelled many places in the world and I can tell you that besides St. Louis (which I hated), BR is the worst I have seen.
Incredible pollution, lack of parks or recreation, no city planning, poor arts culture, horrible transit system, the demographics, lower incomes, no downtown, the worst public schools and gridlock traffic.

BR is not a good place to live ...or be single apparently.

Seems you are the only one whining. Sack up man, you don’t have to defend BR’s honor.

New Orleans has a lot of single women compared to men
Lax drinking culture
Free spirited and open
Romantic date opportunities

Really surprised it's so low

New Orleans should be way higher - looking at their rankings and the cities they have top 10, I bet they penalize it for not being open to interracial dating or some bullshite (seeing Dallas also so low rather confirms that).

BR has a few pieces of steak to stumble upon every now and then, and a whole hell of a lot of gristle.

Houston says hello. That's what you get when you have one of the largest refineries on the gulf coast located right down the road from downtown.

lack of parks or recreation


I call BS on this. BR actually has a very nice park system for a city its size, although I'd love to see a larger urban greenspace developed from the City Park golf course.

poor arts culture


BS here too. Compared to larger cities, the arts scene in BR is lacking, but compared to similarly-sized cities in the south, it's pretty on par. You just have to look a bit harder than in some other cities.

Agree with you here, except for the part about downtown. Downtown BR was on the rise until Broome took office and crime skyrocketed.

What's BR's rank when you take out the singles with AIDS?

Even at 169 Shreveport seems too high.

Keep making shite up. You do realize that BREC consistently wins national awards for having some of the best park facilities? We way overfund that aspect of Baton Rouge.

And so glad you travelled other places. I actually lived on the East and West coasts and can tell you there are worse places to live.

Disregard your Atlanta bias and put them up there. I've spent a few months there in '18 and it is insane. Seems to be 5 to 1 Girl to guy ratio and also it seems like most of the guys are not hetero which even more skews the numbers our way. Atlanta really is awesome right now.

This. It’s literally nicknamed Menver. Horrible place to try to date. This list is awful.
