I am also in a new area and find that I get all kinds of crazy reactions from girls to my various behaviors. I made a thread about it about a week ago on a similar topic but I didn't really mention the aspect of coming from another area. It seems to me that there are a lot of expectations of the other gender that come from being raised in a certain location and in a certain age group. As an outsider, it is easy to send different vibes than you intend and these can get all kinds of interesting reactions.
Talking about myself, I have a lot of girls in my social networks that on the surface seem very interested in me, and sometimes even make it known that they are interested in me by telling their friends (...and then word gets around, etc.) However, there is some expectation of me that I am failing at with most of these girls, because things tend to fall apart quickly once I engage them. I honestly don't know what exactly it is I am doing that is sending such a bad signal to these girls, but I think it has something to do with me being raised in the South but now living in New England. The attitude towards sex and relationships is radically different than what I grew up around, and I think when I talk to these girls, I am engaging in a set of expected behaviors that is understood in the South, but is not understood in New England.
It seems to me that this miscommunication happens less outside of my direct age group. Women older and younger, by virtue of growing up in generations older or younger, do not have the same expectations of what is a proper way to approach someone, etc. I feel that they tend to pinpoint first of all whether or not I am clearly making myself interested in them, and if they determine that I am making it clear that I am into them, they are much more inclined to go with whatever approach I happen to take when talking to them. They don't seem as likely to be weirded out that I'm moving things to quickly or too slowly, or suggested an activity where an activity typically isn't suggested, or whatever else I could possibly do that isn't exactly adhering to what girls my age have grown to expect.
Going back to your situation, I'd say that you're probably giving off mixed signals and have to figure out how to play your cards better in your new area. Look closely at your general demeanor and see how people (especially girls) respond to it. As you spend more time in your area, I'm sure you'll gain status in your community and with that comes a new set of behaviors. You'll in time start acting more like a person that has lived in your area for awhile, and will understand some of the nuances that you don't currently understand.
