Perhaps there were so few women, because at the time there was a rapist/mugger on the loose? Philly is not a great place to be out and about if you’re a lady…

And Sheridan used to have an army base. That’s why I was born near there ~ my father was stationed there during the Korean war.

Being as I am single and looking to relocate, I checked these out a while back. There are disappointing reasons for the inequities. The cities with more men are locations for mens prisons (bad) or military bases (not bad, but many of those guys are married but temporarily dislocated from their wives). The cities with way more women tend to be retirement communities. Waaah!

While the statistic about Ft. Dix, NJ is probably true, it seems misleading. The town is primarily composed of a Air Force base. In that case, one would expect a high ratio of men to women.
