One more approach that you can follow:
1. Zero out your target location,
2. Go to fiverr.com -> Advertising -> Flyers and Handouts.
3. Choose a person providing a gig at your target location at some school, university or a public place.
4. Make a nice flyer using GIMP or photoshop with your app details and a QR code to download the app.
5. Have him/her use this flyer for distribution.
I have used it for my app and it has worked to acquire location based app users.
