Just in time for Valentine’s Day, check out the world's most romantic cities -- according to Facebook, that is.
My travel planning company dove into Facebook’s vast stream of status updates in order to bring you the top U.S. cities where couples are getting engaged (and subsequently talking about it on Facebook). Perhaps these cities are more romantic than the rest, or maybe they just put something in the drinking water – in any case, check out this list and see if a proposal is more likely to come your way this Valentine’s!
Technology behind the data: My company analyzed over 29 million Facebook status updates in our database for excerpts and phrases related to "engagement." Then, we created a list of cities by mapping the resulting text to users’ locations. Finally, we ordered this list according to frequency of occurrence.
