Hello!

I've posted some more in depth stuff about myself in other topics, so I'll just summarize myself with some basic stats -

Age: 28
Aspieness: Lots of sensory stuff and some social stuff, but communication is mostly the same as an NT (through analysis and practice)
Introversion: Very, very high. I don't have social anxiety, I just prefer to be by myself, or with that special someone
Hotness: Average. I'm fairly fit and am of average height and weight. Nothing of interest to note, except that I have a shaved head and beard
Sweetness: High, though I enjoy taking the lead and am not a pushover "nice guy" type

I've been having the hardest time meeting girls I can connect with. One thing that I strongly suspect of working against me is my location. I'm in the sort of conservative city where people turn 21 and then either move out or begin spawning offspring as soon as possible. There's nothing much to do here (though you can still make your own fun) and consequently very, very few people my age here. Pickings are slim. It was honestly easier to meet girls when I was going to a college that was 80% dudes.

So, here's my question - in your experience, how much do you find location helps or hinders the search for love? I don't mean hookups, those can be found anywhere, I mean long term relationships. I'm at the point in life where I'd really like to meet "Her", but I also have a job here that I love and that I would be unlikely to find elsewhere (I work at a national laboratory). I'm trying to assess my options, and your input would be most appreciated.
