MoreThank you so much for the kind words! It’s an incredible feeling to know how much people are loving Towne.
Towne is an invite-only social network for neighborhoods. Neighbors invite each other, and content is shaped by community votes, not engagement algorithms. It focuses on genuine local connections and recommendations.
Yes, Towne is completely free for neighbors. The app is built to serve the neighborhood community, not advertisers, and does not involve any ads or data sales.
