I live in the mountains, and its an older population of people up here. So its very hard to find someone my age that is available. Most people my age are either already married or have careers that take them away form the town I live in. They also tend to be very mistrusting of outsiders, and they are not very open... they are either the hippy type or the super conservative type and most people in the middle like me don't fit in with most of them.
So yes, location plays a huge part in the process. Anyone I have meet in the last two years lives an hour away in a real town or city, so it requires a higher degree of commitment to make the relationship work and that can be difficult. I firmly believe I would do so much better in a town or city... but I love living in the mountains.

I definitely think it can be a factor. Different places got different mentality when it comes to dating.
Another thing is that if you live in a smaller town, like for me, it is a bit trickier to find someone that you connect with that is local to you. With slimmer picking there's a lower chance of meeting someone for you.

of course it does... different cultures have different approaches to these things
if you live among the Taliban for example... good luck with that Absolutely, if you live in a financially disadvantaged neighborhood its very difficult, due to ignorant society seeing you as an outcast, or if you're a small town person where the population is less than 1000 there may not be anyone around to date.
I currently live in a city where people already have established relationships and very little singles meetups. I had to travel to a wealthier city just to go to a singles meet up.
Yes, the culture where you life can just suck. On the other side you life in a retired community or where people are already married that can also be a factor. You can also live in a desert and nobody is around. Location is a factor.
People in large cities have a much better shot at a match than people in rural areas.
I have relatives up north in farm country, slim pickings for guys and gals
Location is the most important factor there is.
