Why small-town members lose out in Marysville on the big apps
The bigger the city, the longer the line. Marysville has about 78,000 people, and on an app that sorts by distance everyone there sees their own neighbors first. A member in Arlington (6 miles away) or Granite Falls (9 miles away) is behind that whole line in the deck of anyone they'd like to meet in Marysville. Tinuiti's analysis of Tinder's algorithm says proximity is a key factor in who it shows you.
