Why small-town members lose out in Everett on the big apps
The bigger the city, the longer the line. Everett has about 114,000 people, and on an app that sorts by distance everyone there sees their own neighbors first. A member in Snohomish (5 miles away) or Mukilteo (6 miles away) is behind that whole line in the deck of anyone they'd like to meet in Everett. Tinuiti's analysis of Tinder's algorithm says proximity is a key factor in who it shows you.
