The Twin Cities are among the best places for singles, according to an annual ranking by Forbes.
Minneapolis-St. Paul was ranked third on the list, after Atlanta and San Francisco , in Forbes.com's 8th annual ranking. The Twin Cities are actually counted as two markets by the list, tied for No. 3.
The list looked at 40 of the largest U.S. cities, and rated them in seven categories, including a city's "cool factor," cost of living alone, culture, job growth, online dating, nightlife and the number of singles.
It was the first time Minneapolis-St. Paul cracked the top 10 and the it was the only Midwestern city named to the list. Other list-makers included: Washington , D.C. (5) Seattle (6), Boston (7), New York City (8), Orlando (9) and Phoenix (10).
