It’s now up to Facebook to decide and add your hometown to the list. We’ve seen this before. Actually, a century ago. Philips created its own towns for employees near its factories because it couldn’t get enough housing for them.
I logged into an old account today that I first made up years ago and could put my city in just fine. This really aggravates me. “Don’t call it a city though”, Google and Facebook would say. It’s like Uber not wanting to be called a taxi and being regulated. Being called a city means the same.

I made my profile up with all my picture, information, etc etc. Dojo, a coworking space, is rumored to start building the first co-living village in Bali soon. The reality is that the majority of the world will be left out.
Facebook and Google are building their own cities: the inevitable future of private tech worker towns
I cannot add anything for my current or hometown city. The new modern tech worker flies from major city hub to major city hub works for big tech companies . And it means, the culture of the 1st-tier cities is converging. Meanwhile, the 2nd-tier cities will slowly die out unless they’re near a top-tier city. The top talent work (and pay!) is in the big cities. This is the new reality of urbanism, whether you like it or not.
Ironically, that remnants of that town are now used as a space for tech workers. Obviously, that’s a good step. But it looks more like saving face, you’ll have 85% of rich tech workers and 15% of “non-tech people that can’t afford it”. The reality is that these cities will radically create a division between the rich tech workers and “the rest”. Once done, tap the “Send” button at the top right corner of the form.

But if it’s true, I’m not sure we want private entities to run our world. Meanwhile, with rents in the San Francisco Bay Area rising to unaffordable levels, we saw Google and Facebook start subsidizing rent for their employees. But obviously this was unsustainable. They introduced free services for their workers to keep them in the office longer, like free breakfast, lunch, and dinner, free laundry service and free childcare facilities.

Life quality will rise inside the tech worker cities (whether Google/Facebook-ran, or for freelancers), but it will be stagnant or decreasing outside them. That’s quite dystopian. To get better work output, you improve the lives of your workers, well, if you can afford to.
You can go through that thread I linked to and see if it helps... Basically the theory was that if you connected yourself to a city in one way or another, it would become a choice on the dropdown menu eventually... So try adding the city in your contact information and maybe give it a few days and see if it becomes a dropdown option.

Suddenly, working for Google became a lot better than working for a regular company. Not just in pay, but in working standards.

It is very frustrating because I would like to at least have my current city on there. All it shows is my place of employment and what high school I ent to. I tried putting my city in the contact information section as well and its the same results. I mean I literally start typing and nothing at all will show up in the drop down menu and when it does it might be like 4 cities tops. I have one problem but its a big problem!
I thought it would've been because my hometown wasn't there even on google so i tried adding it on google maps and it shows quite fine but it still doesn't shows up facebook. Why the hell is facebook not fixing this problem. Ok I made an account a long time ago and never fooled with it but finally decided to make a fill in all my info and put pictures on my page. I logged in with my new password I got because It was so old I forgot the original one.
