Hallo

Perhaps, we can say

People living in one place, form a community.

Or

People who live in one place, form a community.

AnonymousHi Nat,

I found two possibilities:

When people live together in a place, they form a community - Present Simple.
People who live together in one place form a community - Present Simple.

It means the options you provided are not correct. Option A is correct only if you leave off "who" before "live".

Hi Nat,

Look at the answer I gave you earlier.

You can't say People living in one place, form a community.

However, you can say People who live in one place form a community.

Just omit the comma after place.
