How do I get a residency in a desirable location?

Current M2 about to start clinical rotations. I'm at a campus in a rural location but my school has affiliated hospitals throughout the state. How can I set myself up so that I can have the best chances at matching in a city (preferably east coast)? Currently interested in IM, OBGYN, EM. I don't have any connections so getting away rotations or even getting my foot in the door seems impossible. Any advice would be gladly appreciated?
