New Jersey, also known as the 'Garden State' has a population approaching
nine million. Some of the demographics we will examine below, such
as the ratio of men to women, as well as how many of these people are single,
should shed some light on the dating opportunities available to singles living
in New Jersey. Being one the most densely populated
states, New Jersey has many of its residents living within close proximity of
one another. This can be both good and bad. Living near someone you
would be interested in dating gives you both more opportunities to see one
another, but also the added pressure of dealing with congestion on the roads, as
well as at some of the places you might go out to, together. Web Personals Online

So what does all this data mean? Well, the largest percentage of singles are
probably white, although NJ is a racially diverse state that also presents many
interracial dating opportunities. The largest age demographic consists of single
men and women between 18 and 54 years of age. Prime dating age range
(20-34) comprises almost 19% of the total population of New Jersey. Most
likely, the majority of NJ personal ads will be from men and women in this age
range, although there is also a good percentage of seniors living in the Garden
State. The ratio of men to women is almost even, with slightly more
females. This is true, in general, of most states as women tend to live
longer and the disparity between the two groups is usually made up of older
women (above 65).
