I found a newer Towny server called GamerHub Towny and it is built for a small friendly community. The big deal is it has no resets so your builds and progress are meant to stick around.
Griefing and stealing are not allowed so it feels safer for people who just want to build and live in a town. A lot of the players are from Oceania and the US and people are ready to help new players.
It has ingame ranking that uses ingame money plus Dynmap so you can see the world. There are player warps and player shops and a sell only server shop. It also has Jobs and MCMMO and the server gets busiest when it is streamed on twitch.
It supports version 1.21.10 or similar.

I found ArcticMC SMP and it is a chill survival server that mixes Towny and factions. They are getting ready to start a brand new world soon so it feels like a good time to jump in before the reset and watch the chaos start.
You can build a town claim land make allies or try to take territory. PvP matters here and they also run an honor system. They explain it in their Discord rules so fights are not just random griefy stuff.
It also has McMMO style skill leveling so you keep getting stronger as you play. There are custom items too and they even have furniture. The world uses Tectonic generation so the terrain is big and realistic with mountains and valleys. The community is calm friendly and kind of atmospheric so you can grind build or just vibe.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IPArcticMC New Season SMP Map Reset

Sovereign SMP is a Minecraft world built around player politics and law. It feels like a small city where every player can try to become mayor and change how the town works.
There are weekly mayor elections. Any citizen can run a one person campaign and explain why they should be in charge. The mayor is not just for show. They can add or remove laws from an official law book and even make laws that affect certain players to keep things interesting. They can start community projects help fund player shops and set light taxes so everyone helps grow the town.
The server uses a custom currency called resin bricks. The government controls the only Creaking Heart and releases resin bricks through a central bank to keep the economy stable. The Pale Garden is turned off but pale oak saplings will still be given out so people can build with that wood type.
The world is planned to have prisons courthouses and other government style buildings so it feels alive and organized. The server is not open yet but it is launching soon so now is a good time to join if you like political style survival with laws and elections.GG.MINEWIND.NET New Server IP
