Can’t get a date? Don’t blame yourself, as a new report from apartment search website Zumper might be your excuse to blame your city instead.

The report, published October 21, ranked 100 U.S. cities on friendliness for singles, based on a few key metrics: population percentage of singles, median one-bed rent, restaurants per capita, nightlife per capita, entertainment per capita, cost of living index, median nonfamily income and unemployment. The two most important data points were population and rent, which were weighted heavier than other factors.

The idea there is that the best city for single people is one where there’s lots of them (duh), but also has places for people to test the waters (like restaurants, bars, clubs and concerts) while not breaking the bank. Sound like San Antonio? Probably not, because the 210 scored pretty low on the list at No. 48.

The numbers don’t lie. Using the report’s letter-grading scale, San Antonio scored a B for one-bed rent and restaurants, a C for nightlife and unemployment, and a D for single population, entertainment and singles income. The only metric we scored high marks in was an A for cost of living. All in all, that paints San Antonio as a city with very few single people, not many spots for meeting or going out, and not much disposable income among singles. As to be expected, however, there’s no shortage of good restaurants, and the cost of living could be much worse.

Houston is better for singles than San Antonio, but Dallas sinks to the bottom

Houston ranked higher than San Antonio in 27th place, though the Alamo City soundly topped Dallas (50) and surrounding areas Arlington (67), Irving (70), Ft. Worth (75) and Plano (78). Despite being Texas’ biggest metroplex, the Dallas-Fort Worth area consistently lacks in population of singles, nightlife and entertainment.

El Paso didn’t fare too well, either, landing at No. 62.

Austin nears No. 1 spot for most single-friendly U.S. city

However, one Texas city did crack the top 10: Austin. The Capital City, sneaking by at No. 10, scored an A for restaurants, single income and unemployment, while being given a B for nightlife, entertainment and cost of living. One C was earned for single population, and a D was given for one-bed rent. That makes Austin a city with great food and good spots for mingling. However, while the single population is employed and has oodles of disposable income, per the report, there may be fewer of them than in other cities. And, as we all know, one of Austin’s big pitfalls is how expensive everything can get.

The report says that “about 44 percent of Austin’s population is single, and the city’s one-bedroom rent is $1,510. What helps Austin stand out is its high single median income of $68,630, one of the strongest among all the top cities, which supports both affordability and lifestyle.” That helped it place closer to the No. 1 city, St. Louis, Missouri, than to the worst U.S. city for dating, Henderson, Nevada.

So, what does this mean for Texas singles? The takeaway is that if you’re looking for love in Dallas, you should probably buy something in burnt orange, adopt a pet to bring literally everywhere, get into craft beers, and move to Austin. And for the Carrie Bradshaws (or Ted Mosbys) in San Antonio and Houston, good luck out there.
