Why dating close to home runs out
Add up every incorporated city and town within 30 miles of Millersburg and you get 28 places with about 462,000 people between them, not counting Millersburg itself. Within 60 miles it's 86 places and about 1,480,000 people. Those totals count incorporated places only, so people outside city limits would add to them, but the point stands: that's the circle a distance-sorted app draws first, and it runs out fast.

|---|---|---|
| Within 10 miles | 4 | 62,448 |
| Within 30 miles | 28 | 462,471 |

Why Albany is out of reach for you on the big apps
Dating in Millersburg is hard, and meeting someone in Albany can be harder. Many dating apps lean on distance to decide who you see, and Tinuiti's analysis of Tinder's algorithm says proximity is a key factor in who it shows you. Albany is 4 miles away and has about 57,000 people, and a lot of the people there live closer to the person you'd like to meet than you do. When someone in Albany opens a distance-ranked app, their own neighbors come first, so you land behind them in their deck whatever your photos and profile say.
Albany has about 16 times as many people as Millersburg, so a member from Millersburg is outnumbered there roughly 16 to 1 before the ranking even starts.
On Amarbis, ranking isn't based on distance. Choose Oregon as your region and Albany is in your pool with everyone else in Oregon, so you aren't placed behind the person's next-door neighbor because of where you live.
