I'm in Hawaii, but I'm in a similar, if not worse, situation than you.
I just moved to this island and don't know anybody here. Only old ppl live on this island, and we have only one really tiny, crappy college that nobody goes to. Plus, this town/island is so small, everybody is related to everybody (I know I am), and everybody knows each other. You cannot go up to somebody and just ask them about weed. They'd look at you so strangely. Nobody even says hi to anybody unless they really know them. I hate cliquey communities like this. And my family would kill me if they found out I wanna smoke, so I can't risk asking strangers where I can get any weed.
Fleetfootedmonk, just be happy you don't live in Hawaii, where everything is family oriented and tight knit, everybody knows everybody, and everybody is as straight as an arrow. At least where you live, you have the potential to get some weed. For me here, there is zero potential.
