Friday curious. Maps don't lie, ladies & gentlemen!

A new research from the Martin Prosperity Institute at the University of Toronto has tried to figure our their chances of finding "the One". Using data from the American Community Survey, the below maps show the cities where single women outnumber men - depending on the age group.

Men die more often and are born in larger quantities than women in general. That's why there are more younger men and more older women. However, I wonder why there's a difference between coasts, I can't explain that. Men die not so often in CA, OR and WA? Weird

Actually it's true (http://www.livescience.com/33491-male-female-sex-ratio.html). Both social and biological factors are involved.

That is odd. As you noted, women live longer than men, and male births outpace female births
