I'm looking for some good, smart sit-coms produced in the last few years (let's say the late 2000s and onwards).
Some good ones that I've already seen/completed include SILICON VALLEY, LOUIE, MARON, PARKS & RECREATION, MODERN FAMILY (sort of). And obviously classics like CURB YOUR ENTHUSIAM, everything that Ricky Gervais has done, FAMILY GUY, SOUTH PARK etc.
Sit-coms I do NOT care for include BIG BANG THEORY, IT'S ALWAYS SUNNY IN PHILADELPHIA, HOW I MET YOUR MOTHER, COMMUNITY...

I've heard good things about "Last Man Standing" (starring Tim Allen), but I've yet to see an episode.
Unfortunately, I can't recommen "The Jim Gaffigan Show". Hilarious comedian, mediocre series.
If you're going to count "South Park" as a sit-con, then I highly recommend the bizare and self-involved "The Venture Bros.". It sets up and wierd lives of the characters for the first two seasons, then things start taking off and becoming even more odd and wild from season three onward.

While searching for the pilot to the Tim Allken series, I stumbled upon another seires I had not heard of from years ago that last a few seasons, called "Still Standing". Worth checking out.
And I swear that's the "Roseanne" house set, just re-dressed, even down the fridge look and the location of the fridge.

I'd like to help, but your tastes seem to me oddly grouped - for example, I love Parks & Recreation, and Community, while I'm not much of a fan of either Family Guy, South Park, or The Big Bang Theory. Based on my own perception of all these shows, as well as my own experiences and those of my TV-watching friends, I'd consider Community and Parks & Rec to appeal to much of the same viewership, while the other three largely jointly appeal to a different viewership, but you mix them up.
That said, probably the all-around funniest thing I've seen recently that's not mentioned here yet is 30 Rock. I'd recommend it to people who like Community and Parks & Recreation, but not so much to fans of Family Guy, South Park, or The Big Bang Theory. 
I do like Black-ish and Fresh off the Boat, and I find Bob's Burgers both hilarious and endearing. And a new one (just about to start its second season) one that's gotten middling reviews but that I find fairly promising is Superstore.
