I'm in Richmond, VA, and it's really known for just being a tough place to meet girls. From going out a lot and talking to people here from other states, this is what i'm finding out.

1. Richmond is a town of average looking girls who are snotty as shit.
While in other cities, the average girls are all on the periphery with no guys talking to them, while the real player guys are in central bar area hitting on 8-10's, here, you've got 10 guys lined up to talk to every one average girl.

I've heard in major cities and stuff, girls will often look at other girls and they're self conscious at bars and stuff like that. Here they seem to know that, since it's all dudes, and they're the only girls, they can get away with these inflated egos.

A friend of mine from Alabama put it "They're doing it b/c they know they can, it's Richmond. Any other town they wouldn't get the time of day."

How do you handle an area like this? Is this type of setup common or does this sound like something unusual? I mean, I can't just as well pick up and move b/c my family and job, etc. are here, and I'd like to find out what I need to really get things going and get what I can out of the area I just happen to be in.

Any views or feedback would be great.

The most effective thing to do is treat those girls LIKE they are 10's with major bitch shields. Even if they do LOOK average, their mentality is not that way. You HAVE to meet them where their mentality is. There are girls in areas that look like models, but think they are average, so sometimes stuff like that happens. You've got the opposite problem there, so you have to disarm the bitch shields. You have to be different than every other guy.
