The average person is about 50% honest here. Where is it?

Answer: Dating Apps

Clues: “Download” and “Singles”

A new survey had single Americans rate their online dating experiences of how honest people are, on a scale of one to 10.  Singles in South Dakota are the most honest, and New Yorkers are the least. Singles in Wisconsin were assigned an honesty score of just 4.2/10.

And this isn’t embellishing stories, it’s the basic stuff like ages, jobs, hobbies, education, appearances in real life, and even “relationship status.”

And, for what it’s worth, 53% of single people say they’ve found that city daters are less honest than smaller town residents.
