Ratio of Single Men to Single Women in NYC
New York City’s population is 53% female and 47% male. This is a widely cited statistic that often supports an argument that the gender imbalance makes it more difficult for some women to find a partner. Using Census data, we analyzed only the population who are never married singles between the ages of 20 and 34. In this subgroup, men outnumber women—742,400 to 729,500.
More interestingly, the ratio varies widely by neighborhood (we used Census Public Use Microdata Areas). On the Upper East Side, young single women outnumber young single men nearly 2 to 1. Jackson Heights, Queens is on the other end of the spectrum—where there are 1.7 males for every female. The neighborhoods with ratios of 1 to 1? Jamaica, Queens and Pelham Gardens in the Bronx.
On a related note, spending at the City’s roughly 1,200 bars is approximately $855 million per year. This works out to $140 per resident age 21 and over, which is 58% higher than in the United States as a whole.

NYC OpenData

New York City has opened up hundreds of datasets through NYC OpenData.

We are happy to have so many datasets, maps, and documents online, but we know that it can be overwhelming. That’s why we’ve created this Tumblr: to showcase datasets that New Yorkers will find interesting, compelling and thought-provoking.
