I made a list of 295 official Threads communities. It’s at spudart.org/threads, and it includes the member count for each one.
Threads keeps adding new communities. If you know of one that’s missing from my list, leave a comment below with its name. I’ll add it to the page. (Please use the comments instead of email. That way everyone can see what’s already been suggested.)
I recently started using Threads. The communities feature is pretty nice. But finding the right community to tag a post with kinda drives me nuts.
Yesterday I posted a photo of the new Willie Mays postage stamp. Before posting, I went looking for a community. Stamps? Nothing. USPS? Nothing. San Francisco Giants? Baseball? Nothing and nothing. Finally I found the MLB Threads community. The post got 35 likes.
Today is Veterans Day, so I posted a photo of the American flag. I went through the same hunt: USA, America, flag, veteran. No communities came up for any of them.
I wanted a list. Is there a list of every Threads community somewhere? I couldn’t find one.
So I made one. Threads has a community search box. I typed in every two-letter combination: aa, ab, ac, all the way to zz. Each time, I wrote down whatever communities came up. That gave me 295 communities.
As far as I can tell, this is the first page on the internet that lists all the Threads communities.
I also gave each community a category and a subcategory, which makes it easy to compare similar ones. For instance, here are all the city communities, with member counts as of November 11, 2026:
| Community | Members |
|---|---|
| Dallas | 159,244 |
| Houston | 158,247 |
| Charlotte NC | 76,924 |
| Detroit | 68,638 |
| Atlanta Threads | 65,728 |
| Los Angeles | 64,943 |
| NYC Threads | 60,193 |
| Chicago Threads | 54,067 |
| Las Vegas | 25,751 |
| PhillyThreads | 23,469 |
| Toronto | 20,171 |
| Washington DC | 17,020 |
| Seattle Threads | 16,660 |
| San Diego | 15,022 |
| Raleigh NC | 14,625 |
| Kansas City | 12,425 |
| Vancouver | 11,713 |
| Boston Threads | 11,370 |
| Portland | 9,481 |
| Denver Threads | 9,159 |
| San Francisco | 2,453 |
| Memphis | 1,593 |
Dallas and Houston are neck and neck at the top, with only 997 members between them. Each one has more than double the members of Charlotte in third place. Chicago comes in eighth with 54,067.
Out of all 295 communities, Dating Threads is the biggest, with 3,500,984 members. That’s more than AI Threads and Book Threads combined.
Most communities are a lot smaller. Half of them have fewer than 39,567 members. Only 4 have passed 1 million.
Remember my hunt for a San Francisco Giants community? Five MLB teams have their own community. The Giants aren’t one of them. And the smallest community on my whole list is the Tampa Bay Rays, with 160 members.
Did you go looking for a community and come up empty? Did you spot one that’s missing from my list? Leave a comment below, and I’ll add it.
