The most usual meaning of community is small town or city, so we think of people who happen to be living in the same geographical area. A group is much more general idea. Your group may be people interested in English, people who like to shop, people who enjoy racing cars, people who are eating together at a restaurant, people who are at a rock concert, people who like dogs, people who like to grow flowers, or people who like to sing.
