Geordie lass here, but lived a few places and settled in Isle of Thanet (aka Planet Thanet) in South East Kent, England.
Like some, I don't put out too much info. Thanet covers a fair few towns and small villages.
When you're on any social media just be careful of any information you're giving out. Even in those silly little games that ask for your birthdays etc. You never know where that info is going, or who to, or why!!
If you play the games try giving false dates, just to be on the safe side. If anyone asks for the area you live in, give a generalised area.
There are many reasons people don't want their exact towns/villages known on-line, safety being the most important!
Be safe, y'all, and have a lovely day xx
