The European cities having the most sex, ranked

Are we in dating armageddon, or is it just the city that you live in?

Well, we at Time Out are always keen to peek behind the curtain at how life varies between our major hubs, and the latest load of data from our massive, 18,500-strong survey revealed which cities are having the most sex – so we’re here to help you find out. 

We asked our participants how regularly they did the deed and ranked each city based on the proportion of people who responded with ‘at least once a week’.

The research found that Macau on the south coast of China topped the worldwide ranking, but in Europe specifically, the title went to none other than Luxembourg.

That’s right – 66 percent of respondents from this tiny capital city said they had sex at least once a week, which tied with Guadalajara and Sao Paulo to claim second place across the planet. 

Second place in Europe went to Porto, where 64 percent of people get lucky on at least a weekly basis, and in third place was Marseille, joint overall with Bangkok and Rio, with a score of 61 percent. Did your city make the ranks? Scroll on to find out.
