One Delaware Spot Ranked Among Worst Cities For Singles In US
Finding love isn’t always easy, no matter where you are. But now we are learning that one Delaware town has ranked as one of the worst cities for singles in the country. That’s not good!
According to data from the U.S. Census Bureau, 47% of the country’s adult population is categorized as unmarried due to divorce, being widowed or having never married. In addition 57% of single adults aren’t even interested in a relationship or casual dating right now. That’s a lot of single adults who are loving the single life.
In a recent study conducted by WalletHub, they looked at a series of factors from close to 200 cities in the US. The factors included the economics of dating and the amount of fun and recreation available to even create a date. In addition, they factored in opportunity. Dating opportunities include things like gender balance and the percentage of population that is single versus in a relationship. They also look at dating apps.

Stores and Restaurants Open on Christmas Day
Most of us eagerly anticipate spending Christmas Day unwrapping gifts and enjoying time with family. But certain overlooked items always require a last-minute visit to a store. That’s when knowing which spots are open becomes beneficial.
Why certain places opt to remain open on Christmas?
It might strike some as unusual that certain places opt to remain open on Christmas. However, not everyone observes the holiday. Some individuals may even prefer working during this time, anticipating more generous tips. The thing about Christmas is that ads and commercials usually depict it as the ultimate day of the year for everyone. Yet, for those who are missing loved ones or simply prefer to overlook Christmas entirely, it might not be the “most wonderful time of the year” for them. The places that choose to stay open on Christmas may have valid reasons for doing so.
Several restaurants and stores typically close early on Christmas Eve and remain closed on Christmas Day, but this doesn’t apply universally. Some chains keep various locations open during the holiday season. If you’re curious about your local spots, either make a call or check online to confirm their hours.
For those in the mood for a steak, options like Outback can cater to such preferences, while coffee enthusiasts can rely on chains like Starbucks and Dunkin’ Donuts to stay caffeinated during the holiday rush. Some restaurants offer dining-in options with reservations, while others, such as Cracker Barrel and Boston Market, provide à la carte holiday menus to accommodate a range of preferences.
Whether your Christmas tradition involves a home-cooked meal, dining out at a favorite spot, or a quick store run for forgotten items, knowing the operating hours of nearby stores and restaurants on Christmas Day can be useful. To save time and prevent the inconvenience of visiting closed stores, we’ve compiled a list of some places open during this festive period. Additionally, for those not participating in Christmas celebrations or preferring takeout, there are dining alternatives available.
