Singles in Durham

Durham dating is the Bull City's renaissance — the American Tobacco Campus's restaurants and the Durham Performing Arts Center anchor downtown, the Durham Bulls Athletic Park hosts summer baseball, Ninth Street's shops and the Eno River trails cover the casual dates, and Duke University keeps the intellectual energy high. Dating culture is food-obsessed and progressive: James Beard-recognized restaurants, a legendary food-truck scene, and Brightleaf Square's nightlife draw a crowd that's smart, diverse, and social. The Research Triangle transplants mean everyone's from somewhere else and open to meeting people. Practical tip: a Bulls game followed by dinner at the Tobacco Campus — and keep chatting free on HySingle after, because Durham's dating scene rewards the curious and the conversational.
