I'm doing a research paper for school, whereas I'm comparing and contrasting Amish and Goth. Do gothic people have their own communities like the Amish do?

I don't think there is any comparison, and maybe you are a little confused. Goth is a modern subculture and chosen lifestyle, but not in communities. Whereas, Amish is a culture and lifestyle, and I think known more liberally as Mennonites; with their on religious beliefs.

Gee that is a far stretch of a difference.
Goth communities are usually more like a ''social'' culture, whereas Amish live and work together.

Here is a link for goth

Here is one for the Amish
