This has been especially crucial throughout the past 18 months. We have seen firsthand how important local connections are, as people were unable to physically be with faraway friends and family and looked to their local communities for support. So, we designed Facebook Neighborhoods to build and strengthen local communities.\u201d<br \/>To join, Facebook users will create a Neighborhoods account listing, along with the interests and hobbies they&#8217;d like to interact with others about. Neighborhoods then allows the group of users in a given area to plan events, meetups, request and recommend local businesses and discuss local issues. Users cannot connect with their Facebook friends on Neighborhoods unless they\u2019re connected through the new app and live in the same area. One key Neighborhoods feature as the holidays approach is a Giving Marketplace which allows users to offer items they\u2019re no longer using to their neighbors, similar to sites like OfferUp and Freecycle.<br \/>\u201cWith Neighborhoods, we\u2019re really interested in strengthening people&#8217;s connection to their local communities,\u201d Patton said. \u201cWe\u2019ve seen some incredible ways people have supported their neighbors through local groups and connected through common interests, and we\u2019ve also seen people eager to get local recommendations. We wanted to create a single destination for the local community experience that currently exists across Facebook.\u201d<br \/>Sign up for email newsletters<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.pressandguide.com\/2021\/11\/22\/neighborhoods-feature-on-facebook-expands-to-dearborn\">source<\/a><\/p>\n<!--CusAds0-->\n<div style=\"font-size: 0px; height: 0px; line-height: 0px; margin: 0; padding: 0; clear: both;\"><\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Ahead of the holidays, Dearborn residents will have access to a new community feature on Facebook.Facebook is expanding its test of Neighborhoods, a dedicated space within the Facebook app designed to help users connect with their neighbors, participate in the local community and discover new places nearby.Dearborn is one of more than 130 U.S. cities [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"googlesitekit_rrm_CAow1sXXCw:productID":"","_jetpack_memberships_contains_paid_content":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":false,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1188","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-non-classe"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/monblogeur.tech\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1188","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/monblogeur.tech\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/monblogeur.tech\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/monblogeur.tech\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/monblogeur.tech\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1188"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/monblogeur.tech\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1188\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/monblogeur.tech\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1188"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/monblogeur.tech\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1188"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/monblogeur.tech\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1188"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
