Wichita’s affordability makes it tops among the 100 largest U.S. metros for singles relocating and looking to meet others who are single. That’s according to a new analysis from Zillow, the Seattle-based national real estate and rental marketplace. “Remote work has opened up housing possibilities all over the country,” said Amanda Pendleton, Zillow home trends expert, in a news release. “If untethered from an office, singles can move to places that offer more affordability and a vibrant singles scene. Metro areas like Wichita, where your housing dollar stretches further, are particularly appealing at a time when, nationally, rents are nearly 16% higher than last year.” Although Wichita did not have a singles population level toward the top of U.S. metros, its rent affordability compared to other cities powered it to the top.
