The most important thing I got from it (assuming I'm reading it right) is that Austin has a whole bunch of single men, and New York has a whole bunch of single women.

165,000 excess single women seems like alot, until you realize that the
population of the NY-NJ-CT urban area is in excess of 18,000,000, or
slightly under 1%.

Of course, the state average for people identifying themselves in a
relationship is ~32%, which makes it more like 5% ...

Hell, if 4.99999% of those women /aren't/ insane, it'll make Austin's
scene look like joining the fucking Navy.
