Methodology
Single population growth: We began by removing cities without an increase in their single population, then discarded any city where the number of singles was on the decline.
Income growth assessment: Income growth was measured over a 5-year period and standardized for comparison.
Housing affordability: We examined the proportion of mortgages that consume 35% or more of household income, using inversely standardized owner costs for this metric.
Sex ratio: The best scores were given to cities where the ratio of men to women was nearly equal.
Rent affordability: Rent-to-income ratio is critical so we started evaluating the proportion of renter income allocated to housing expenses.
Median age comparison: Each city's median age was scored against the national median to derive a normalized score.
Home Value Growth: Property that grows in value over time is crucial so we analyzed across two time periods to measure real estate growth.
Comprehensive final ranking: Cities were ranked based on individual ranking metrics and an overall ranking was determined by averaging all scores.
Online Dating: Online dating is one of the most important aspects for singles so we analyzed the usage and the most searched online dating apps for each state.

Kootenay Resources Announces the Sleeper-Magnificent-Knapp ("SMK") Gold-Silver Exploration Project in Central British Columbia
NOT FOR DISTRIBUTION TO UNITED STATES NEWSWIRE SERVICES OR FOR DISSEMINATION IN THE UNITED STATES. VANCOUVER, BC / ACCESS Newswire / June 13, 2025 / Kootenay Resources Inc. (TSXV:KTRI) (the 'Company' or 'Kootenay') is pleased to introduce its 100%-owned Sleeper-Magnificent-Knapp (SMK) Project, a large-scale, early-stage exploration property with significant discovery potential for gold, silver, and associated critical metals in central British Columbia. The project, located roughly 25 kilometers southwest of Fraser Lake, BC covers 3,6234 hectares of prospective ground and forms part of the Company's objective for the discovery of Tier One mineral deposits. The property is situated within the same mineral belt as other key projects in Kootenay's portfolio of high quality early-stage exploration properties. Strategically positioned with road access, nearby power infrastructure, and proximity to resource-friendly communities, the SMK Property represents a compelling epithermal and porphyry exploration opportunity in one of Canada's most prospective yet underexplored mineral regions. Kootenay continues to expand and define vein outcrops in two main mineralized trends at surface at SMK and is pursuing a dual target model. The vein systems, in conjunction with alteration zones mapped at surface are interpreted as upper-level extents of an intermediate-sulfidation epithermal gold-silver system with porphyry copper-gold potential at depth (click here to see an aerial map). The project boasts high grade surface results today including assays ranging from below detection up to 25.99 g/t gold (Sample MK10-389, BC Assessment Report #32330) and 455 g/t silver (Sample SK21-134, BC Assessment Report #40117). Sampling to date defines two strong multi-kilometer trends for follow up. Two major vein trends are identified by previous work, including: The project is road accessible and only 25 kilometers from the Company's exploration office at Fraser Lake. 'We're excited to formally introduce the SMK Project,' said Dale Brittliffe, VP Exploration. 'With significant surface results, large-scale untested structures, and proximity to infrastructure, SMK is preparing permit applications for trenching and first-pass drilling to unlock its discovery potential.' Kootenay Resources considers trenching and first-pass drilling essential to evaluate high-priority targets and assess potential porphyry feeder zones beneath the established epithermal system. Additionally, the Company is pleased to announce that it intends to complete on a best efforts basis, a non-brokered private placement (the 'Private Placement') for aggregate gross proceeds of up to $200,000. The Private Placement will consist of a combination of non-flow-through and flow-through common shares. Under the Private Placement, the Company will offer, non-flow-through common shares of units of the Company (each, a 'Unit') at a price of $0.06 per Unit and flow-through common shares of units of the Company (each, a 'FT Unit') at a price of $0.075 per FT Unit , raising aggregate combined gross proceeds of up to $200,000. Proceeds received from the Private Placement will be used for the development of the Company's Moyie Anticline Project, other resource properties (eligible for 'Canadian exploration expenses, which are flow-through mining expenditures) and general working capital requirements. Each Unit shall be comprised of one common share of the Company (a 'Common Share') and one-Common Share purchase warrant of the Company ('Warrant'). Each Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of $0.12 for a period of 5 years from the closing of the Private Placement. Each FT Unit shall be comprised of one common share of the Company (a 'FT Common Share') share (as defined under the Income Tax Act (Canada) and of one Non flow-through Common Share purchase warrant of the Company, (a 'NFT Warrant'). Each NFT Warrant shall entitle the holder thereof to purchase one Common Share at an exercise price of $0.15 for a period of 5 years from the closing of the Private Placement. Proceeds received from this Private Placement will be used for the development of the Company's exploration projects (eligible for 'Canadian exploration expenses, which are flow-through mining expenditures) and general working capital requirements. The securities to be issued under the Private Placement will be offered by way of private placement in each of the provinces of Canada, other than Quebec, and such other jurisdictions as may be determined by the Company, in each case, pursuant to applicable exemptions from the prospectus requirements under applicable securities laws. The Private Placement is anticipated to close on or before July 25, 2025, or as decided by the Company ('Closing') and is subject to certain conditions including, but not limited to, the receipt of all necessary regulatory approvals. The common shares to be issued under the Private Placement will have a hold period of four months and one day from Closing. In connection with the Private Placement, arms-length finders may receive a cash fee in respect to their subscribers equal to 6.0% of the gross proceeds. Furthermore, the Company announces subject to TSX Venture Exchange approval the closing of its previously announced private placement (see news release dated October 17, 2024) for aggregate gross proceeds of $57,626. An aggregate total of 624,281 common shares will be issued and consist of: Proceeds received will be used for the development of the Company's Moyie Anticline Project, other resource properties (eligible for 'Canadian exploration expenses, which are flow-through mining expenditures) and general working capital requirements.
