Neighborhood ScoutReviews 24

Pick 20 random cities you know to be safe, each and every one is going to be "one of the most dangerous places in America" according to this webpage.

The report from Neighborhood Scout is completely misleading!
It is extremely political!

I really like to give Neighborhood Scout a -5 stars, but this review does not that choice!
It ranks a better, more expensive and least crime neighborhood worse than an cheap
And more crime ( from a police report, a person be shot to death in front of a house's garage
Entrance! Of a cheap Pathercreek commuity of Frisco tx sevral years ago).

My main question is why Google considers them a relevant source!? What a farce, how many more characters do I need for this review Google!?

Every city is claimed to be among the worst in all of America, despite the size location or state. Do not use!

Needed one report. I subscribed and tried to cancel, but couldn't figure out how. Then life happened, and I forgot. For 6 months.

I only logged into this website once, but they kept charging me $50 / month, like clockwork. When I asked for even a partial refund, the response was terse and insensitive.

Every business in the world with this billing model needs to grow up. It is unethical to continue charging someone month after month when they aren't using your service. If I don't login, don't bill me. It is that simple.

I live in Moore in South Carolina and it is not safe there been several shootings, fires, and people getting first-class rides from ambulances. Additionally, there are gang activities and constant loud music I plan on moving but I hate when sites like this have inaccurate information that will lure people into renting/buying a place only to have their safety and health at risk here.

Neighborhood Scout is very eager to make people paranoid in terms of crime and costs of living. And Alex V. and Brenda S. Has the most faked and biased reviews that it's not even close to being believable. Why should I give them my money if I have to pay for it again, just to read their fake statistics? This just screams corporate greed, and other reviewers were right about their shady practices, including their lack of accurate information and making people overly worried. I had cousins who lived in Kissimmee and they weren't even victims of crime whatsoever. Neighborhood Scout is a total farce and only wants your money for their fake statistics.

According to scout, every city is the worst in the nation. Ask for resident reviews for the truth. I have looked to purchase a home with an open mind in location, looking from the west coast to the east coast. I have looked at over a thousand homes easy. If you read 1 review about a neighborhood you read them all. Every city is the worst in the nation lmao. I have compared Neighborhood scout to homeowners in the same locations and found these people lived here their whole life or many years and love their town. Crime? Yes. Every place has crime that's life. I suggest you go on Google Earth and place yourself on street view. You can walk through the neighborhood and see what the houses look like and how they are kept up. If your neighbor has a beat up sofa sitting on the porch and trash in their yard, you might want to look further,... I mean unless you have a beat up sofa on your porch, a broke down car and dirty diapers on the lawn. The majority of the homes I have looked at have well kept up yards, some immaculate, but somehow are terrible places to live. Look. If you're in the habit of going to dive bars and staying out until 2am, expect trouble. If you live a nice life and have morals you're less likely to have trouble. That's just common sense a monkey can figure out.

Just wanted one month's subscription for moving, so I ordered the one month's subscription (and I only needed one month). However they reenabled subscription after the month ends, and refused to cancel and the refund even I realized and asked them for cancellation at the start of the second charged month. They said they had notified me about the renewal, but I really did not notice that what should be not apparent enough. Even it is apparent, I suppose they should support cancel/refund in my situation, at least stop at the time I requested!

Someone pointed out neighborhoodscout's stats on our small town which is as close to "Mayberrry" as you will ever see. We rated a 2 (horrible according to the site.) I honestly cannot recall the last violent crime that happened in our county. Then I found your site. From the other reviews, it is obvious that neghborhoodscout skews data to get people to enter their credit card information. More fake news, though this time it's on the internet - - and they charge you for it.

This company (Location Inc) provides an online service called NeighborhoodScout.com and has questionable business practices (cancelling services that have been paid for if any user, God forbid, looks at more than 50 unique pages in a month, with no refund provided for services not rendered, and providing absolutely ZERO customer service - you will get NO RESPONSE AT ALL to any emails or calls to their detached/uninterested voicemail). Technically, this policy is mentioned in the Terms when you sign up but, in practice, few people read the Terms that closely (if at all) and almost nobody would assume that a business would have such practices in the first place. End result: this has happened to several people with perfectly reasonable expectations of service (just google it) who pay for a service, get that service taken away (< 24hrs later in some cases), and are left to twist in the wind (with their $$ never to return) because these people don't give a f**k about customers; they're in it for a quick/easy buck for providing barely helpful information to people they'll screw over and see in small claims court (one day). Whether you'd call this a scam, fraud, or ripoff... I'll leave that up to you, but it certainly isn't a reasonable practice and the way its communicated/implemented is no way to build a long-term successful business (not that they'd give a s**t about something like that).

The information on the website was very generic. Full access is not worht it - used it once and didn't find usedul. Now that I'm living in the neighborhood I was researching - the info was wrong. Moreover, I signed up for monthly service (you can buy monthly, quarterly, or yearly) - thinking it was for one month - and they continued to charge me every month after that. Until I noticed several months later. Refused to return the money and wrote me the nastiest customer response I've ever gotten. HORRIBLE! Beware.
