Great way to communicate with various neighborhoods around the area. You can sell items, discuss safety issues, talk about services needed or just welcome a new neighbor to the site.
I love everything about Nextdoor except when people go off on rants. Just move on and get over stuff. I just stop reading and leave the thread. It's great to ask for all sorts of help and questions about anything. Great community safety outreach. Good for references. You don't even have to ask, just read what others say about businesses.
I find out many things from this app. What's good, what's bad. Plus, I've met many of my neighbors through it!
I really enjoy Nextdoor news. Keeps me up with what is going on in the neighborhood.
Also enjoy reading about people's experiences. I have gotten good leads on several businesses. Have hired a few though recommendations on Nextdoor.
I have thrown in my two cents here and there. Overall its a thumbs up!
I find ND most useful for distributing neighborhood events, lost pet issues, security/safety notices, and contractor recommendations. However, I find there are too many ads and a tendency for many issues to become "debate stages" that devolve into opinion contests. I like the availability of filters and controls that you can use to turn off comment postings and future notifications. More filters and controls would be nice.
Keeps you informed and up to date on all things happening in your neighborhood. I use it everyday. Great place to buy and sell items and to get advise on most everything.
A lot of very nice people respond. Need to space out interviews for a timely opportunity. Need to fit in to my time restraints.
Helps me find out what is happening at the neighborhood level. Great place to sell unwanted items. Keeps me connected.
Love this site for local information, for sale and sales items. The only downside are the negative posts. Seems like no matter what the subject is, there is always someone who can't say anything nice.
I check out Nextdoor daily. I like knowing that this is one way to know what is going on in your neighborhood. We can not be too careful, now a days... watching out for each other, is a must!
This app reminds me of the old neighborhood bulletin board. It has things for sale, rent, lost, found, recommendations, alerts and info about neighbors.
I've met neighbors and become friends.
It's too bad some people are using the for sale section for commercial purposes. You can tell these people because they're selling a lot of new things, usually for more than you can get on line. I don't mind commercial enterprises on the site as long as they are identified as such.
Nextdoor is excellent for recommendations, neighborhood news, lost pets & information. Our particular neighborhood happens to have some unhappy people who lack filters but it is balanced (like life) with others who are a blessing. All in all a good website.
Keeps neighbors alert and aware of surroundings and lost pets
Also helps find handymen and services in the area
I am enjoying it & find it helpful & informative
Thank you very., i don't know what else to say to make it 100 characters
Great place to communicate with neighbors, and learn about neighborhood activities. It is also a real place to sell and buy items from neighbors.
I sometimes click on a post and want it to go to that particular one, but it does not. It even does not appear at all. Maybe it is my ipad. I like being able to communicate with my neighbors.
I joined Nextdoor a few years ago, and I have found it to be both informative and somewhat entertaining. I like being able to find out neighborhood news just by going online. It has helped me find out organizations to join, where I have met neighbors and other nice people. I also enjoy getting different perspectives on different issues.
Good way to ask for reputable help for home repairs. References for new neighbors. Awareness of possible perpetrators.
Answer: The negative reviews are honest reactions to being duped into sharing too much personal information (that Nextdoor now owns and will NEVER delete and will continue to sell to advertisers until your dying day) to join a site that seems friendly on the surface, but which does NOTHING to protect users. I was bullied by a convicted murderer, who is a Lead in my neighborhood--and I was banned from the site for complaining. Leads are nothing more than early adopters of the site who have been assigned power over other users so that Nextdoor does not have to police it's own site. In short: No. The negative reviews are not wrong. Heed them! I wish I had known before it was too late!
Answer: Forget about nextdoor and leads. Get a life, a real one. Don't waste your time with toxic online communities that tend to get the worst out of people. My advise is run away while you still have some dignity left.
Answer: Kay is right. That is their policy. However, don't expect them to hold to it. We have leads unfairly removing only some people's comments and Nextdoor does nothing about it. Best bet, dump nextdoor.
Answer: Neighborhood. Rocks is in development. Another 6 months.
Answer: Truth is like oil and water. As long as the scam artist have enough venture capital (other people's money) they will continue to shake the bottle leaving it a murky view obscuring the truth. Run out of cash, they'll be exposed for the incompetent boobs they are and the top dogs will clear out their bank accounts and move on to the next scam. One look at their "leading edge tech" pulled right out of the 1980's is proof enough they will die in the tar pits just like the fellow dinosaurs. Want a state of the art app?

Answer: Dallas, SiteJabber rates it at 16%. It would surely rate lower if there weren't so many fake positive reviews. Folks review Nextdoor either 1 or 5. The fives read like ads about Nextdoor's features and potential. The ones are written by real people and give accounts of how awful their experiences were.
Answer: Several other reviewers on this site have had the same thing happen to them. We have been fully banned from nextdoor (beyond just "suspension"), but they keep our profiles, and sometimes our names still appear in the neighbor registry. They refuse to remove us fully, I suppose, in an attempt to misrepresent our endorsement and participation there. It's clearly unethical, but their TOS states that they can do this, as any nd apologist will point out.
Answer: Here's a tidy answer from corporate... Hi Colleen, Thanks for getting back to me. Our Community Guidelines prohibit posting about Lead activity on the main newsfeed. If your Leads are inactivate and youre concerned about moderation in your neighborhood, you should reach out directly to Nextdoor Support. If you have any specific concerns I can help you with at this time, please let me know. Best, Amanda Nextdoor However, the minute you alert corporate to issues with leads in your community you'll find your account terminated. They are very protective of the information surrounding who really is controlling the activities on the boards. Most people in my community are under the misguided impression that corporate is in control. They don't even consider it is their neighbor who sits in judgement.
Answer: Nextdoor wants your full legal name, house number and address and your email address that they link all together. As an added bonus... They have a little map that you can click on. That way if, OMG, you offend someone the little map leads them straight to your house. Run, do not walk, away from this site. No good comes from Nextdoor.
Answer: Your name and address will be known to everyone who uses the NextDoor application and website. I don't suggest using it. I recently discovered that low income apartments in ghetto areas might be able to use the application to do crime. Car theft, asaaults, kidnapping and just about everything else under the sun.
When neighbors start talking, good things happen.
