I know that you've posted that you're really into house/hip hop music. And you're probably not going to find too much of that in a small town.
Be prepared for most small towns to be Noah's Ark - Two by two. I live in a small-ish suburb and its not much fun to be young here. There are only a few bars here, and they aren't fun young people bars. They're sad, old drunk people bars. Everyone where I live has pretty much settled down and so there aren't any places to just go out.
Thank goodness I live less than an hour away from New Orleans - I'd lose my mind otherwise!
Good luck!
