Dayton loves love and Barry White, city makes ‘Top 20 Most Romantic Cities’ list
Dayton “Can’t Get Enough of Your Love, Babe.”
This is a pretty lovey-dovey place judging by the number of romantic books, movies and Barry White albums purchased here since January 1, according to Amazon.com.
Dayton ranks 9th on the online market place’s list of the “Top 20 Most Romantic Cities in the U.S.”
The web site came up with the light-hearted list after crunching sales data for White CDs and MP3s, sexual wellness produces, romance novels, relationship books, and romantic movie comedies.
Each city ranked has 100,000 or more residents.
Big shocker here: New York City is the least romantic place, according to Amazon.
The list will likely surprise you in other ways too.
Knoxville, Tenn. was the most romantic city.
The top ten is rounded out by Alexandria, Va.; Springfield, Mo.; Orlando; Cincinnati; Vancouver, Wash.; Miami; Murfreesboro, Tenn.; Dayton; Columbia, S.C..
Pittsburgh came in 11th place. It is followed by Clearwater, Fla.; St. Louis; Erie, Pa.; Clarksville, Tenn.; Everett, Wash.; Gainesville, Fla.; Las Vegas; Rochester, N.Y.; and Tallahassee, Fla.
