Definition of a community.

What makes a community? ‘Community’ is broadly defined as a group of people living in the same place or having a particular characteristic in common. However this definition is by no means complete. The definition of what makes a community is flexible depending on the situation. 

For example, a geographical community may be defined by having a shared location, whereas a social community is defined by a sense of fellowship. An academic community may refer to a group of people who have all completed the same education level, whilst a religious community refers to a shared belief system. 

In science, a community is the term used to describe two or more species coexisting in a shared environment. 

 

The reality is that there are many types of community, and many definitions of what makes a community.
