New here wanna make friends

Hii I just moved to Kitchener from guelph and I've been in Canada for almost 7 years. I always struggled with finding friends and keeping them but I really want to try now that I'm moved out and alone. So how do people find friends here? Cause it seems like everyone find them from university.

Also, I wanna add it's not like I don't try I do. It's just that some people just don't wanna talk? I'm 24 and I feel like everyone my age is now just too shy or in their phone rather than making convos with others.
