What I like about the West is secularism.

What I dislike is lack of community and loneliness sometimes.

Feeling lonely is normal if you are in a new place, let alone on a different continent. You will find good friends and a nice community in no time, i can tell that by looking at your genuine smile. Good luck!

Honestly I’m not religious. Nor does religiosity appeal to me. Spiritual yes!

Rural communities anywhere tend to be regional. I am always taking my example from academic intellectuals.
