How to make friends in a small town?
So, today's the day I move into a new town to assist in taking care of my grandparents for about a year- now, I've been in this town growing up often enough to know that it's basically a ghost town with mostly old people and poorer than usual college students, but since I'm older than the average college student, I feel I don't have enough in common with the younger half to easily connect with anyone.
So, what's an introverted late-20s guy to do when you don't know anyone in town who isn't a family member, and there's not much of an online presence in any of the major social networks? I'm seriously scraping the bottom of the barrel looking for ideas, and could use any suggestions I might have missed
Ideas I've considered:
Become a regular at the local card/comic shop
Join a gym
Scan bulletin boards for classes and activities
Wow, I could have sworn I had more than 3 ideas before I listed them out- see what I mean? If anyone has any ideas that I might have overlooked, feel free to share
