FPF isn't about "encouraging engagement" in the back and forth discussion type. It is more about giving/getting very localized information/resources. Think "did you get my package" "I need someone to put a new culvert in" "lost dog" "hens for sale" "town hall closed today"

In your neighborhood, how many posts per day (or week) are typical? Are there notifications or is manually checking the forum required?
sry delay - my area is typically 2 email digests a day, each with about 15 posts. Varies a bit by day of week and season.
Generally 3-5 posts per day in downtown-ish Burlington.

They come out in a digest once per day, which the app notifies you about or you can get via email
