I'd say rather than choose what style of martial arts to learn it would be better to choose on the basis on what the school is like.

My advice is to go to each of the centres near your area and check them out individually, preferably an advanced class. This'll give you a better idea of what you can hope to achieve by learning there, as well as learning what kind of students there are and what kind of atmosphere it has so you can determine whether or not you'll be comfortable there. And yeah, stuff like location and cost will matter as well. No use picking a style then finding out that the closest place that teaches it is a hundred miles away and costs a million a week.

Don't be afraid to ask the teacher any questions, either. There's no such thing as a stupid question. And likely the teacher has probably come across every single question beforehand.
