What’s a romantic search? Is it a Web search for a dating site? Or perhaps tips on how to set up the perfect date? Whatever they are, Bing is tracking them.
Bing revealed on Wednesday that it has tracked romantic searches across the nation and compiled a list of the cities that search for romance the most. Atlanta, Georgia came out on top with the most romantic searches with Washington, D.C. and Detroit, Michigan trailing behind in second and third place respectively.
Once again, Bing doesn’t come out and say what exactly constitutes a romantic search. We’ll just leave what Georgians and Washington, D.C. residents think is romantic up to the imagination then.
As for the least romantic cities, Tampa Bay, Florida leads the pack as retirement villages are probably not brimming with romance. Following it are Austin, Texas and Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania in second and third place respectively.
