Minneapolis is among the best cities in the nation for single women looking for mates, according to a report from NerdWallet, a data-driven personal finance website.

Their analysis scored major U.S. cities based on census data, male-to-female ratios, median income and access to entertainment venues.

Minneapolis fell behind San Francisco and Seattle for best cities for single women. Minneapolis did not make the top-20 list for best cities for single men – the top cities were Baltimore, Philadelphia and Washington, D.C.

Overall, Minneapolis landed at number 12 for singles of both genders, where Boston led the nation.

Music Review: Anitta welcomes listeners into her 'Funk Generation' on new album

First, Anitta took over Brazil. Now, the world. The trilingual Brazilian pop star has returned with a new album, the club-to-bedroom ready ''Funk Generation.'' It is an infectious collection of dance songs celebrating a once maligned genre that also manages to experiment beyond its confines. But those searching for more mainstream pop music should look elsewhere.
