Networking/meeting new people

I was transferred down to Houston during Covid. My fiancée & I didn't know anyone when we came down which was fine but found its been a little more challenging to meet people than what we expected.

We were in the River Oaks/Upper Kirby area the first year but since moved up The Woodlands area as I was working on a project in Conroe. Now being permanently remote, we just decided to stay.

We've met two really awesome couples but that's about it. Any advice? We seem to start great conversations with others when out but it doesn't transition past that night.

We are both in our mid-late twenties. Both are really into sports (hockey is favorite but know it's non existent down here), really enjoy the breweries, going to concerts, & getting out to the local parks.
