Valid startup or bad idea?
I’m a college student in Houston thinking about building a local-only social/dating app focused on connecting people in the same city instead of being another massive nationwide platform.
The idea is making it feel more community-based and centered around Houston culture, events, and college life.
Before investing a lot of time into it, I wanted honest feedback from people here:
Is a city-specific app actually interesting or unnecessary?
Would people realistically use something like this over existing apps?
Is the local/community angle enough to stand out?
What would make you personally try it?
What’s the biggest reason you think it could fail?
I’m genuinely looking for honest opinions and criticism before moving forward.
