Australia’s randiest city is revealed: The hotspot where singletons get more Tinder matches than anywhere else – and it’s not Sydney or Melbourne
- Tinder Australia announced the ten places that have the highest rate of matches
- Strangely Sydney (no. 32), Melbourne (no. 31) and Brisbane (no. 23) fell short
- Instead the NSW country town of Tamworth took out the top spot overall
- They were followed by Albury, Rockhampton, Bundaberg and Wagga Wagga
Tinder has found the highest rate of matches in Australia are far away from most of our capital cities, instead nestled inside small coastal and inland country towns.
The dating app, which has been bringing couples together since its launch in 2016, has revealed the 10 hotspots you’re most likely to make a connection – and hopefully organise a date to follow.
After crunching down the numbers, Sydney (number 32), Melbourne (number 31) and Brisbane (number 23) all fell short of the top spot – so it might be a sign to pack your bags and head outside of these regions.
Earning the top position was none other than NSW regional city and country music capital Tamworth (pictured)
Earning the top position was none other than New South Wales regional city and country music capital Tamworth.
Unsurprisingly the lyrics to most country music songs contain the words ‘love’ and ‘relationship’, boding well for potential suitors in the area.
Runner up is Albury, which is nestled on the NSW and Victoria border on the Murray River, followed by beef-loving residents in Rockhampton, Queensland.
In fourth position is another Queensland city known for its sweet sugarcane and rum distillery.
Bundaberg might be on the coast but there is no coasting in relationships with these local lovers it would seem.
Fifth place saw Wagga Wagga, the most famous of double named Australian towns, reign supreme followed by the sugar capital of Queensland, Mackay.

Down in chilly Tasmania things are heating up in Launceston with the western city taking the seventh spot, and sunny Townsville in northern Queensland following suit.
The second last position on the list is Darwin, the only capital city to make the list.
Perhaps the stunning weather and ever-present fear of crocodiles are bringing people together in droves.

Sadly there were no winners from South Australia and Western Australia, so when it comes to finding a pairing, it might be best to avoid the states.
