Are you looking for a software solution or marketing efforts for an online community you have already built?

Campushook.com and Student.com is a large online community website aimed at teens, college students, and young adults. You may try this.

You can create your local community at facebook by inviting people from your local network.

I believe you need something like Dolphin, the Smart Community Builder. Serach google for more information and find a host that provides it.

Good Luck.
