I can't speak from firsthand experience, as I moved here with my now fiancee. But we have a number of friends in that age range of multiple sexual orientations who seem to have a fair time dating in the area, though some include NYC in their geographic search region, and handle that in different ways, while others stick to (mostly southern) Connecticut.

I don't know that dating here is much different than dating elsewhere, if unless you include the warping influence of NYC.

If you don’t mind my asking, how do your friends handle adding in NYC to their dating apps? Does it seem to make a difference for them? I just moved from another big city and Ive been thinking of doing this since new haven pool is smaller, but seems logistically challenging, so just curious!

Not sure about the details of how they add it to their apps, unfortunately, but some of them have a significant fraction of their dates with folks from NYC (sometimes in New Haven, sometimes in NYC)- at least one is in a long term relationship now and spends every other weekend in NYC with their SO.
