Answer 1

While you're waiting for others to post a more specific contact information regarding your search.  In the meantime,  If you're serious enough I suggest the following step for you to take.

First thing you have to do is check your local yellow pages or phone book,  look for the all the available schools your area has to offer.

If you're not in the area yet,  call someone you know in the local area to scan, mail or list the martial arts section on the yellow page and have them sent to you.

The reason I always suggest to look in the phone book first is due to the fact you're pretty much searching for a school in your local area. You may even find one a few blocks down from you.  Using the phone book as your first step will make your search faster and easier because all the information such address and phone number are available for you right there.  

Secondly, if you are not having any success with this type search, After all the vigorous research on styles and decided on a particular style of martial arts. Try contacting an organization of that particular style on the internet and ask if they can refer schools or certified instructors available in your local area.

Please note that there are good number of good instructors that do not advertise or teach for commercial purpose thus you won't see them advertise anywhere. They are mostly located in private gyms or community centers.  Just them a call and even if they don't have a program ask to see who they can refer you to.

One last thing, I don't mean to sound abrasive, but If the above suggestion is too much work for you, then the probability of you being serious in joining a martial arts school is less than zero.   I am sorry to say this but, there's plenty of answerer's here that wants to sincerely help you in your quest, but you have to do your part.

Hope this helps and good luck with your search.
