Not "are" - "is". The local group is a galaxy group that includes our Milky Way. It has three large galaxies, and perhaps 20-30 smaller ones.
The local group of galaxies that include our Milky Way is called the "Local Group".The local group of galaxies that include our Milky Way is called the "Local Group".The local group of galaxies that include our Milky Way is called the "Local Group".The local group of galaxies that include our Milky Way is called the "Local Group".
We are part of the Local Group. The Local Group contains the Milky Way, two other major galaxies, and dozens of dwarf galaxies. The Local Groups is a group of galaxies which, as galaxies go, are close to us.
Yes. Our local group of galaxies is made up of 3 larger galaxies (milky-way, Andromeda and M33) and several smaller or dwarf galaxies.
Gravity holds the local group of galaxies together.

A small cluster called the 'local group'
No. It has only 3 big spiral galaxies, but dozens of dwarf galaxies.
The Milky Way Galaxy is the second largest galaxy, after Andromeda, in the Local Group. The Triangulum Galaxy (a.k.a., the Star Wars galaxy) is the third largest. The Local Group contains about 30 galaxies, including dwarf galaxies.
A galaxy in the Local Group.
The observable Universe has at least a hundred billion galaxies. The galaxies closest to us are part of the so-called "Local Group" (that is, the group that includes our galaxy); this Local Group includes our own galaxy (i.e., the Milky Way), the Andromeda Galaxy, the Triangulum Galaxy, and about 50 dwarf galaxies such as the Large Magellanic Cloud and the Small Magellanic Cloud. Then, of course, there are hundreds or thousands of galaxies "near-by" as distances between galaxies go, but outside of our Local Group.
The galaxy cluster that contains the Milky Way is called the Local Group.
The Milky Way is our galaxy, the are no other galaxies within it though we are part of a local group of galaxies.
