Apparently "utopian communities" are actually intentional communities following a utopian model and they don't like to be referred to as "utopian communities" because it's considered prejorative.

Here's a list of utopian communities in the US, btw: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_American_utopian_communities

Yea those aren't utopian. They can call themselves whatever they want but it doesn't make it true.
