How do I meet people when moving to a new city?

Question

I will be relocating to a new city in a month for a job. I will be living and working downtown (it's a major city), but I am afraid because I don't know anyone there.

I am pretty comfortable meeting new people, but how do I make friends? Church seems like a good place to start, but I am not religious.

I am really worried about being lonely ... help.

Answer 1

The article below suggestions the top 10 places to meet people in every city.

After that, you will find a website that gives tips on techniques to meet people (body language, small talk, etc).

If you use these sites and make a goal to meet one new person everyday, in no time you will build up your new social circle.
