Provo is well-known as the home of Brigham Young University, but the college town is also making headlines for being the no. 1 best area for dating in the US.

ApartmentList.com recently surveyed over 11,000 single renters across the United States. Participants were asked, “How would you rate your current city or neighborhood for opportunities to date?” Topping the list was Provo, Utah.

  1. Provo, Utah
  2. Richmond, Virginia
  3. Raleigh, North Carolina
  4. Bridgeport, Connecticut
  5. Knoxville, Tennessee
  6. Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania
  7. Denver, Colorado
  8. Houston, Texas
  9. Chattanooga, Tennessee
  10. Grand Rapids, Michigan
