Seattle ranked fourth for ‘eligible bachelorettes’

Feb 8, 2012, 12:14 PM | Updated: 3:07 pm

Men’s Health magazine thinks they know “where the babes are,” and they’re in Seattle.

The fitness magazine examined the ratio of single women to men, the percentage of college educated women to men, and the percentage of gainfully employed single women. Then to make sure these babes were fit, they took stock of the percentage of women working out.

Not examined by the magazine? The percentage of single women that owned more than two cats.

Seattle was ranked fourth and given a letter grade of “A” on the list of 100 cities.

Portland, ME, Boston, MA have more eligible women than Seattle, according to Men’s Health, and so does Washington D.C, which is number one for most eligible bachelorettes.

The fewest eligible ladies come from metropolises like Buffalo, Cleveland, Toledo, and Bakersfield. But the worst place to find a solid solo gal is Las Vegas, which is maybe why what happens there, stays there.

For men in Seattle, this means their pick-up techniques should maybe include approaching pretty ladies running around Green Lake or at Lake Washington, given that working out accounted for one-quarter of the single-babe-factor.
