Why dating close to home runs out
Add up every incorporated city and town within 30 miles of Yarrow Point and you get 60 places with about 2,864,000 people between them, not counting Yarrow Point itself. Within 60 miles it's 97 places and about 3,475,000 people. Those totals count incorporated places only, so people outside city limits would add to them, but the point stands: an app that starts with whoever lives closest builds your options from a small circle, so you keep seeing the same few profiles.

Why Kirkland is out of reach for you on the big apps
The city next to a small town is often the hardest place to date from it. Kirkland (about 97,000 people, 4 miles from Yarrow Point) has plenty of singles, but a distance-ranked app lists them for each other first; Tinuiti's analysis of Tinder's algorithm says proximity is a key factor in who it shows you. A member in Yarrow Point ends up behind every closer profile in the deck of everyone in Kirkland, so the matches that should be easiest to reach are the ones the app makes hardest.
Kirkland has about 85 times as many people as Yarrow Point, so a member from Yarrow Point is outnumbered there roughly 85 to 1 before the ranking even starts.
On Amarbis, ranking isn't based on distance. Choose Washington as your region and Kirkland is in your pool with everyone else in Washington, so you aren't placed behind the person's next-door neighbor because of where you live.
