In general be open about your hobby, mention it at work or other meetups. Meetup is also a thing try hobby crossing here as well check the pen and paper and boardgaming groups. If there is a store near you offer to do demo games (unfortunately you will restrict yourself to games they can order and sell). Check for churches and neighborhood associations with space, start a club. Schools, colleges and Universities are also a good starting point. If you play historic games you can also try local history groups. Veterans associations might also be a good pointer.
All of this is a lot of work. Besides the churches I’ve done everything- I’d probably burst in to flames if I entered one.
