I live in Central Arkansas. I was overwhelmed with "matches" that live in Louisiana, Mississippi, Texas, Kentucky, even California. That was after my preference of 100 miles. I complained and was told to make my preferences stricter. I did. 50 miles and rigid age bracket, race, religious preference, etc. I haven't received a match since, it's been a week.
Tip for consumers: There are no real men within 50 miles on that dating site.
