If you're old enough to drink (edit: I hit send on this and then immediately thought 'well if they can rent a uhaul they're probably at least 25...' lmao) - hit a bar. Sit down AT the bar and just chat up the bartender/any interested parties also chilling. A simple excited "I just moved here! Any suggestions for must-do things/places to eat/shop/etc?" will do the trick and may even make you some friends.

Guarantee you that at least one person in the bar will hear this and go "oh my god congrats!! you should try x, y, and z" and will likely cause someone else in the bar to hear & go "oh you haven't been to X yet?? you NEED to go there instead of what they said!"
