The Boys of Bozeman
by Steve Watters on 10/19/2006 at 11:30 AM

I just want to give a shout out to all the guys in Bozeman, Montana; Ames, Iowa; and Cullman, Alabama.

You're in the spotlight today in the second part of Plenty of Men to Go Around. The same Census report I've been hammering on regarding married households slipping below the majority, also tells where never-married men and women are. Bozeman, Ames and Cullman were right around the top for areas with the highest ratio of never married men to never married women.

I started wondering this morning if the news that the great majority of U.S. towns and cities have a higher ratio of never-married young men than women would create a scarcity crisis among men. Are men who see they are outnumbered going to get motivated and start competing with the men around them for the pool of available women?
