If you are single, all the single men with jobs are in Clarksville!

All the single ladies, listen up!!!  Notch another list topping best of for Clarksville! This one’s for the girls, if you are looking for a man with a job, Clarksville landed at the top of a Pew Research study! The Clarksville area has the honor of having the nation’s highest concentration of single men with jobs, outnumbering women 145 to 100.  That’s pretty good odds if you are on the hunt!

There is some argument to whether it’s a demographic trend or the factor of Fort Campbell.

Pew Research says about eight in 10 single women surveyed who want to get married one day say it’s very important to them that their future spouses hold down a steady job. Less than half of the surveyed men felt the same way, so in that case it goes both ways.

Pew research has an interactive map for bachelorettes to see the “hotspots” in the country of the most single men concentration.

Memphis is also on this US list: Only 59 employed young single men for every 100 young single women. Some other metro areas in the bottom 10 include Jacksonville, Florida; Detroit; Charlotte, North Carolina; and Philadelphia
