A method and system of community boundaries in a geo-spatial environment are disclosed. In one embodiment, a method of organizing a community network includes obtaining a location on a geo-spatial map, determining a representative in the community network associated with the location, obtaining a community boundary selection associated with a community from the representative, determining a region corresponding to the community boundary selection on the geo-spatial map, and creating a community boundary associated with the community on the geo-spatial map from the community boundary selection. The method may further include determining a residence of a member of the community network in the region, and associating the member with the community based on the residence. The method may also include obtaining a privacy preference corresponding to the community, and hiding a profile associated with the member from a public view of the community network based on the privacy preference.
