Being Single Stinks. Being Single In Sioux Falls? Not The Worst

Dating in a "normal" world is already tough.  Once you add a global pandemic to the mix, the odds of meeting a potential partner aren't great. It's also important to note. that even before COVID-19, the internet was changing the world of dating for better….or worse.

According to a new study from WalletHub, almost 50% of adults in the United States are single. Online dating is one of the popular ways to meet a potential partner, especially during a global pandemic. However, some cities around the country aren't great for single people whether you're searching for that special someone either online or in person.
