Silver Senior Dating is a community for people in their fifties, sixties and seventies, and most of our members are 55 or over. They are not spread evenly. Australia is by far our largest country, followed by the USA and the UK, with smaller, friendly groups in South Africa, Canada, New Zealand and Ireland. Each page below tells you honestly who is there, which areas have the most people, and how to make the most of it locally.

Senior dating near me: how to find singles close to home
If you have ever typed "senior dating near me" or "seniors dating site near me" into a search box, what you really wanted was a list of people you could meet without packing an overnight bag. That is exactly what distance search is for.
When you create your profile, you give your town or city, and you tell the site how far you are prepared to travel. From then on, everyone you see when you browse, and the members it suggests to you each day, sit inside that circle. You can also narrow things by age, by what someone is looking for, and by lifestyle details such as smoking and drinking, so the list fills with people who might really suit you.
Your privacy holds throughout. Other members see only your nearest town or city, never your address, and your real name and email stay hidden.
A few practical tips. In a big capital, a small radius usually gives plenty of choice. In a smaller city, or out in the country, widen it: an extra half hour of driving can bring in a good many more people. And if you are moving, or spend part of the year somewhere else, simply update your location and the search follows you.
The whole thing works in the browser on your phone, so you can check new matches from the bus or the garden. Our guide to using the site on your phone shows how, and the over 60s dating guide has tips on getting replies once you have found someone. Or head back to the home page to see how it all fits together.
