Town Square
The community layer, owned by the community.
A neighbor-run alternative to Big Tech’s feeds — bulletin boards, events, and groups for your town, with no ads and no algorithm deciding what you see.
Jailbird JoeyTurn yourself into an inmate card. Only you see it — until an admin throws the station switch, and then everyone is one.

What is happening near you, from agencies' own records and from neighbors. Off until you turn it on, and you choose exactly what gets through.
🛏️
HoodBnB
A floor to sleep on, offered by a neighbor: couch, spare room, driveway — mostly for people traveling in for a meeting or a hearing. No money moves through this site.
🔑
HoodRide
Older, affordable, fixable cars sold neighbor to neighbor — daily drivers, beaters, buckets and analog iron. Nothing newer than 2009. No money moves through this site.
🏷️
Swap Meet
What your neighbors are done with: tools, furniture, bikes, a whole garage before a move. Sell it, swap it, lend it, or give it away. No money moves through this site — sellers name their own payment app and you pay them directly.
🚕
Taxi
A ride from a neighbor, not a company. Somebody driving to the courthouse on Tuesday with an empty seat, and somebody who has a hearing at nine and no way to get there. Nobody is dispatched, nobody is rated out of five, and nobody takes a cut. Every ride is free right now.

A shared local calendar of gatherings and meetings.
