× My hometown is very small near about Lucknow.

✓ My hometown is a very small town near Lucknow.

The preposition phrase 'near about' is incorrect; use 'near' to indicate proximity. Also add article 'a' and the noun 'town' to make the sentence complete and natural. Suggestion: use 'near Lucknow' or 'about X kilometers from Lucknow'.

× He is located in district Hardoi.

✓ It is located in Hardoi district.

Places are referred to with the pronoun 'it', not 'he'. Also the noun order should be 'Hardoi district'. Use 'It is located in Hardoi district.'

× So my hometown is very small area.

✓ So my hometown is a very small area.

The sentence misses the article 'a' before 'very small area'. Adding 'a' makes the noun phrase grammatically correct. Alternatively say 'a very small town'.

× Actually, I was born in my hometown and I really like it's because my whole family live near.

✓ Actually, I was born in my hometown and I really like it because my whole family lives nearby.

Use 'it' (not it's) to refer to the hometown. 'Live' must agree with the singular noun 'family' so use 'lives' (subject-verb agreement). Use 'nearby' as an adverb meaning 'close by'. Keep past tense for 'was born' and present tense for current feelings and facts.

× And actually I was born in my hometown, so I live there 18 year near about 18 year and my schooling in my hometown, so I live there.

✓ I was born in my hometown, so I have lived there for about 18 years and I did my schooling there.

Use present perfect 'have lived' to express a period continuing to the present and add 'for' with the plural 'years'. 'Near about' is incorrect — use 'about' or 'around'. For completed past action 'schooling', use 'did my schooling' or 'went to school there'.

× Yeah, actually, yes, my hometown is good place for young people because I live there so many time.

✓ Yes, my hometown is a good place for young people because I have lived there for a long time.

Add the article 'a' before 'good place'. Use 'have lived' and 'for a long time' to express extended duration. 'So many time' is ungrammatical; use 'for a long time' or 'for many years'.

× So this is good place for young people. I definitely recommended young people, so leave their side.

✓ So this is a good place for young people. I would definitely recommend that young people live here.

Add article 'a'. 'Recommended' is past tense; use modal 'would recommend' or 'definitely recommend' for present opinion. 'Leave their side' is incorrect phrasing; to suggest someone should live in the town use 'live here' or 'stay here'. Use 'that' to introduce a clause with 'recommend'.
