Most Romantic City

by Patrick on February 16, 2008

It's well known that restaurants are packed on Valentine's day, but we decided to actually crunch the numbers and answer the burning question:

Which city in the US is the most romantic?
^*of the 29 cities covered by Urbanspoon

Most of our cities received abnormally high traffic on Valentine's day, and a few in particular seem to be tremendously romantic. Unfortunately, one of our cities lagged decidedly behind. Based on our rigorous statistical analysis of these patterns, we can definitively conclude the following.

Dallas is the most romantic city by far. Big D wins big. Las Vegas is the least romantic city by a landslide. What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas, and has absolutely nothing to do with love.

Here are the complete results:

City		Valentine's Day Traffic
Dallas	+118%
Toronto	+66%
Miami	+58%
Calgary	+58%
Portland	+54%
St. Louis	+53%
