Miami Named America's "Flirtiest City": Study

LONDON, March 10, 2011 /PRNewswire/ --

Miami is today named "America's Flirtiest City" by the researchers behind the largest ever study of online flirting.
Boston ranks second and San Francisco third in the first "National Flirtation League" (NFL) compiled by Badoo.com (http://www.badoo.com), the world's largest social network for meeting new people, with over 109 million users chatting and flirting in 180+ countries across the world.
Badoo's flirtation league ranks U.S. cities by the number of chats/flirtations initiated per month on Badoo by the average user in each.
The U.S. results are part of a larger global study of over 12 million flirtatious contacts made during one month on Badoo.com.

The average Badoo user in Miami initiates 18.5 flirtatious chats per month: fractionally more than in Boston (18.4) or San Francisco (17.1) but comfortably more than in New York (16.1) or LA (15.1).
While Miami tops the American league, Athens, Greece is named the world's flirtiest city.
Even the flirtiest American cities are flirting in the minor leagues compared to the world's three flirtiest cities - Athens, Moscow and Kuwait City - where average Badoo users each initiate over 25 online chats/flirtations per month.
Miami ranks 62nd globally, New York 89th and LA 106th.

I'm a little surprised NY got so high on the list; we can be a grouchy people.

I don't know, I think New Yorkers are extremely social. Granted that was probably referring to Manhattanites but still I'd assume that being the most populated city in America means it must have a lot of people flirting. I'm surprised it isn't number 1

That, or you're so used to seeing/being around people that you want nothing more than to get away. I always hear stories about people in the south who, say get on a bus, and have strangers come up to them and have a conversation. If some stranger tried to have a convo w/ me I'd be suspicious more so than flirty LOL.
