Excellent for finding lost animals and warnings about the location of coyotes.
Excellent for informing us about local crimes.
Terrible for angry people who should be on meds.
Terrible for those who feel the need to express their political beliefs.
Terrible for those who put down others.
Perhaps some rules for use could be implemented more strongly with those who break the rules losing the privilege of the site.

Not user friendly, at least to me...
May 9, 2019

The site, at least to me, does not seem user friendly. I am a "snowbird" and have trouble with having two accounts, in the two different states in which I reside. I have given up several times trying.

Nextdoor outsources community moderation which ends in disastrous results.
Want to report child abuse that you personally suffered by a private school that wants to purchase property in your community? BANNED!

Our lead is mentally imbalanced, a liar and insatiably nosy. I know her personally and the woman desperately needs attention and recognition. She is over-the-top crazy and paranoid. I caught her lying about someone publicly on the site, called her on it, so she retaliated by deleting my account.

We could not be happier with our new beautiful closet from American Built In Closets in Sunrise, FL. Perry and his team were professional, on time, responsible, and helped us a lot in designing our closet. I have referred a friend and will continue to do so. Thank you American Built In Closets!

Tyrannical app
February 4, 2023

You know, if it wasn't that other innocent human beings interact through your platform, it would be nice that Nextdoor because as forgotten as yahoo messenger and other platforms. You think you run a tight ship, but what you are doing is running yourselves to the ground. All your pride, all your detachment from society, as if you're a supreme being, will all come to an end. And your suits and arrogance will become your shame. You cannot hide behind a screen and numbers forever. Your shame, your folly will be brought to judgment. God sees who you are, and even if you try not believe, judgment day is here. So, keep acting in error and absolute vulgarity and you will see how soon the curtain that separates you from the world will be removed and punishment rain down on you like painful rain. So, keep it up for sure soon you will be brought abysmally low.

My opinion
June 27, 2019

Very convenient way to contact neighbors - learn what is new. From traffic accidents to avoid, sell something, giving someone asssistance, recommending a place to go, eat, etc.
What I DO NOT like is people "venting" -- this is not a political forum.

Politics and suppression
December 4, 2020

I was using this app to post conservative politics, politely doing so. Liberals and leftists didn't like my posts and were very rude about it but Nextdoor suppressed my account by reprimanding me? Go figure. I don't recommend this app to neighbors or neighborhood. They aren't fair, they are more like Twitter, Facebook, Google, etc. Activists. Very poor management of their product. Leftists were allowed to insult the President but I was not allowed to post my conservative posts. Hmmmm

Block/mute doesn't work
September 22, 2023

When I block and mute someone I no longer see their post. However, they can see my post and they can also comment on my post. I don't see it but others have sent me screenshots and I also see others responses to them. Very frustrating! I have emailed this to support but never received more than acknowledgment of my email.

Bullies roam freely
August 30, 2016

First of all, this scam of an idea uses all your private info to make a buck or two. However, the biggest problem of all is that it is a place for neighborhood bullies to make control grabs and then try to control people who disagree with them. It is a joke. During my short-lived membership, I watched innocent people get badmouthed and banned by people who badmouth freely. I went to several review sites and read all the horror stories. I am done.

I read both positive and negative reviews, but I cannot comment on these.

I can comment on the site's "sign-up" process/policy, which was a miserable failure for me. It was WAY to personal and WAY over the line in the information they requested/demanded. In attempting to sign up {failed} I also found the "marketing" practices discouraging, out of date and NOT within the norm of on-line practices.

I was attempting to sign up to offer an extremely positive view of a tradesman I retained who is signed up with the site. But I as mentioned the sign up failed.

This is my review and as they say, "first impressions" are everything, in building expectations and establising image.

Opinions

Some good and some not so good. Once people arguing on Nextdoor. I have gotten so many good people from asking on Nextdoor. I would like to know how to take mine off when I have no need for it to be on there. Mostly I like the experience. Just my opinions!

Generally Positive
August 8, 2019

Overall, I like the resource and have gotten some great info and recommendations. The only problem I have is with the back and forth fighting and the overly critical replies making me often reluctant to post.

Without any supervision, people can accuse others without any burden of proof, and/or publish pictures of them without permission. This can be extremely damaging to the reputation of others, without a real way to address the perpetrator, of contact the app/company.

How to not get blocked from conversations!
August 2, 2019

I have found that if you don't have to respond to a comment you are better off! If you make a statement that others disagree with, you will be blocked from the conversation! It is a pretty sad situation that only one way thinking is the only answer!

My experience with Next Door
May 30, 2019

Hi, overall, it's ok Andi. I don't like that posts get deleted. I can understand obvious mean posts but most of the time something is deleted, it doesn't seem controversial. I hate that I can't renew my classified ad each week to keep it fresh. Craig's list allows this. Actually, classifieds are only good for 1 week unless you renew it with the link they send when it's posted. So I do use Craig's list more to sell my things. Also, I feel like I should be able to join other neighborhoods besides mine. Also, Sometimes it's really hard to find older posts. The search engine isn't great. What I do like is the connection I feel to my town. I have learned so much about my town through NextDoor. Thx

Problems with information
July 19, 2019

I have tried to get my email on the site. I received your email about the survey without any problems.
I never get any emails about the neighborhood or next door.
I used to get email every day. I don't understand what is happening.

I truly regret trying this before reading the reviews. Nextdoor is truly a spying and chain letter platform. Please don't make the same mistake. We have a commercial in-home server system with commercial software. We are able to block ads. We can ID what ad server spies use and then collect data after we block them. Works GREAT! Blocked literally millions of ads. First Nextdoor spys on you to target ads. Pretty normal. What makes them stand out is the sheer volume of the ads. In 6 hours before I deactivated, I said deactivate not remove (another story) In 6 hours we blocked 5396 ads from the Nextdoor ad server. Not many can have a commercial in-home server system. We can get statistics. Nextdoor takes the cake when serving up ads compared to others. Lol. I also dislike the "chain letter" marketing by Nextdoor acquiring your contacts. Once they have them, they have them forever. In addition, the site itself is mediocre. But that is my opinion. If you read this review stay as far away from Nextdoor as possible! Conversely if you like social media of any stripe give them a try.

All people do is act like children and tell on you if you have a strong opinion and they dont agree with it. I got kicked out for 15 days and was given no explanation at all. The admins are a joke and hide in the back waiting for an opportunity to block someone. They are all a bunch of $#*!s if you ask me.
