Share this @internewscast.com

If you’re dating in Florida or Nevada – beware, you might just be falling for someone who’s more into your wallet than your heart.

A new nationwide study has revealed the top five US states with the highest concentration of ‘gold diggers’. 

Both Florida and Nevada tied for first place scoring a staggering 8.24 out of 10 on the ‘gold-digger index.’

The rankings, curated by the divorce-coaching app SplitUp, explored factors such as the concentration of millionaires and billionaires per capita, and the volume of Google searches for terms like ‘sugar daddy,’ ‘marry rich,’ and ‘sugar baby.’ 

It also tracked behaviors on dating apps and the average income and cost of living in each state.

The results point to a clear trend how in certain states, love and luxury are intertwined.

Following closely behind Florida and Nevada are Texas (8.23), California (8.07), and New York (8.04). These states together make up the top five locations in the US where wealth and attraction meet.

‘Honestly, if I had to make my own list, these are the states I would pick. Florida and Nevada are known for having dating cultures where money plays a significant role, especially in places like Miami and Las Vegas,’ matchmaker Blaine Anderson told the New York Post.

‘In both these cities, I’ve had numerous clients mention that they’ve met women on first dates who openly state, “I want someone who can pay my rent,”‘ added Anderson.

It’s perhaps unsurprising that these top-ranked states are also characterized by thriving real estate markets, vibrant luxury nightlife, and visible concentrations of wealth.

‘They combine high concentrations of wealth with lifestyle-driven dating cultures, so the pursuit of love and luxury often goes hand in hand,’ said Emyli Lovz, a dating and relationship expert and cofounder of matchmaking platform emlovz.

‘Where luxury lifestyles are visible and accessible the line between affection and ambition gets even blurrier,’ Lovz added. 

The data shines a spotlight on Miami and Las Vegas as epicenters of what Anderson calls ‘financially-incentivized dating.’

She said the pressure to present luxury lifestyles through flashy clothes, expensive cars, and ultra-exclusive venues creates an environment where ‘high-value partners’ are evaluated by income first and chemistry second.

While the term ‘gold digger’ remains loaded and controversial, both Lovz and Anderson insist that the trend is not necessarily about exploitation but rather about intention.

The study didn’t just rank the glimmering gold-rush states – it also revealed where those simply looking for love over money may roam.

The bottom five states, where residents are statistically least likely to prioritize wealth in a partner are Maine, Wyoming, Montana, Nebraska and Vermont.

With their rural charm and slower pace of life there also fewer ultra-wealthy residents.
