I think that also depends on city design too. A teen living in a dense city in 1920 with a working metro had a lot more options than the teen stuck in 1960s american suburbia or the 1990s teen living with helicopter parenting.

And in the end, it didn't really matter that much, since most teens only dated people in the same school, church or other social institutions they attended anyway.

"most teens only dated people in the same school, church or other social institutions"

'Ethnic group' is the primary criterion. That would correlate race, religion, language, culture all into one.
