For me, when I stopped working in an office I found the best places to meet people were clubs or fun type classes that had group activities. If you go to the gym or take an academic class, you can meet lots of people but many are there not to socialize but are there for a specific purpose, like to get fit or get a degree.

But with hobby or interest groups you tend to meet other people with the same interests who are looking to socialize as well.
