The bars and music clubs of the city are frequented as much as by wealthy patrons as by the regular crowds. The Beale Street in particular is known as the entertainment district of Memphis and here you stand a great chance of bonding with a successful single over mutual taste in music. So for a night of sheer musical ecstasy check out the B.B Kings for some live blues, the Kings Palace café for some great jazz and the easy-to-miss Black Diamond which is home of some of the great blues artists and touring acts.

Other equally happening nightspots in Memphis frequented by the rich and single are the Senses with its strict dress code and six difference clubs, the Level II Entertainment Complex for its psychedelic experience or the Alfred’s for some vintage rock.

Frequent the affluent neighborhoods

Living amidst the wealthy offers one of the best chances of getting to know the singles among them. While Memphis is not particularly famous for setting the bar on lavish living in the country which is typified by Upper East Side of New York or the Bel Air Los Angeles, quite a few neighborhoods in this city are marked by houses worth over half a million dollars. In fact a survey conducted by the personal finance magazine Worth1 in 2000 found four of the country’s top wealthiest neighborhoods in Memphis. These included Midtown/Central Gardens at No. 25 where homes were worth $680,000,  Belle Meade/Galloway at No. 29, with $585,044 dollar homes, River Oaks at No 30. where homes cost $582,500 and Chickasaw Gardens with $525,000-dollar homes at No. 37. And even if you cannot afford a pad in any of these exclusive neighbourhoods, frequenting its boutiques, cafes or the parks might also throw you in touch with a rich and single resident.
