Is it bad to prefer to be around people with similar backgrounds and interests? Isn't this the definition of a community?

  That is just one type of community.

    What kind of community isn't centered around some form of shared values or common interests?

      what about the original form of community: physical location -- the one we spent deep history evolving to be suited to navigate with wetware, instinct, intuition and body language, and from which initial social behaviour emerged :)

        That clearly is not an answer the question asked.

      If common interests are defined too narrowly or arbitrarily, you don't get much community.
