A community is a small or large social unit (a group of people) who have something in common, such as norms, religion, values, or identity.

Often - but not always - communities share a sense of place that is situated in a given geographical area (e.g. a country, village, town, or neighborhood).

Durable relations that extend beyond immediate genealogical ties also define a sense of community.

People tend to define those social ties as important to their identity, practice, and roles in social institutions like family, home, work, government, society, or humanity, at large.

Although communities are usually small relative to personal social ties (micro-level), "community" may also refer to large group affiliations (or macro-level), such as national communities, international communities, and virtual communities.

Public broadcasting includes radio, television and other electronic media outlets whose primary mission is public service.

In much of the world, funding comes from the government, especially via annual fees charged on receivers.

In the United States, public broadcasters may receive some funding from both federal and state sources, but generally most financial support comes from underwriting by foundations and businesses ranging from small shops to corporations, along with audience contributions via pledge drives.

The great majority are operated as private not-for-profit corporations.

A home or domicile is a dwelling-place used as a permanent or semi-permanent residence for an individual, family, household or several families in a tribe.

It is often a house, apartment, or other building, or alternatively a mobile home, houseboat, yurt or any other portable shelter.

Homes typically provide areas and facilities for sleeping, preparing food, eating and hygiene.

Larger groups may live in a nursing home, children's home, convent or any similar institution.

A homestead also includes agricultural land and facilities for domesticated animals.

Where more secure dwellings are not available, people may live in the informal and sometimes illegal shacks found in slums and shanty towns.

More generally, "home" may be considered to be a geographic area, such as a town, village, suburb, city, or country.

Citizenship is the status of a person recognized under the custom or law as being a legal member of a sovereign state.

A person may have multiple citizenships and a person who does not have citizenship of any state is said to be stateless.
