You may belong to a Facebook group that covers your neighborhood or town. Most of what's discussed probably isn't of interest to people not currently living there--you'll see items for local sale, complaints about traffic or roads, and similar things. There are usually similar groups for your towns of origin, and I encourage you to join them, because amongst those posts that won't be of interest to you, you might find genealogical gems that you might not have found otherwise. These aren't those genealogy-specific groups (which are great resources as well) but rather the groups that cover people's day-to-day lives.
