What US cities, in terms of both culture of the place and many other things are great cities for a guy to move to as a total stranger who knows no one yet still somehow end up with a pretty good social life?

I know that certain cities like NYC would not be good cities to move to because most people are cold and cliquish there.
The answer would depend on your ethnicity, age and interests. Most large cities with a lot of transplants should good for people of any background though. The Northeast and West Coast might be somewhat better if you're over 30.

You're wrong about New Yorkers. I found it very easy to talk to strangers there and get involved in social scenes. I can only speak for Manhattan and parts of Brooklyn. People in the ethnic (including white ethnic) enclaves of Queens or Brooklyn may be more cliquish.
