You can search for clubs based on location.
Some people even go so far as to reveal their location is a forum post.
I have used a search engine with some success to find local players. The caveat there is that the field is 100% optional, anyone can put anything they want there, and many people either leave it blank or put something fake in the location. @CosmicMicrowave, for example, you just have nh for your location, which isn't particularly useful to seeing how local you might be to someone.
NH (New Hampshire) is a small state and I was hoping there was a way to connect with other chess.com members in my state and nearby in VT and MA.
I was actually going to post that NH was a small state but I really didn't now how far other areas might be from your particular location so thought that wasn't a very valid statement for me to make![grin.png]( "grin")
So is there a search feature in Chess.com? Is there a channel or group I can start?
You can go to Share > Members and search town or state names. That may turn up some. I use Google and use site:chess.com LOCATION
There are also some state level clubs so you can find some that way too under Share > Clubs
