Looks like I should have used Seattle instead of SF :)
https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-male-female-ratio-in-San-Francisco-for-single-people-aged-25-45-compared-to-other-cities-in-the-Western-world https://www.quora.com/What-is-the-male-female-ratio-in-San-F...
Ratio of men to women (age 25-45) to save you a click:
Seattle: 1.5
San Francisco: 1.2
New York: 1.0
Chicago: 1.0
--------
How those statistics correspond to anecdotal stories:
"First off, to say that this is not an apple to big apple comparison is an understatement - it's comparing an apple to a bushel of apples. Add in the east bay, and NYC is only about 8 times larger then SF.
So, even without the gender skew, there are just a lot more women in NYC, and a lot more types of women. NYC is far far far more diverse on every axis / scale. There are also a lot more men, but since the population is way less self selected and homogeneous then SF, being a tech guy who makes good money is a big plus, not just average."
