Nextdoor Rocks
December 21, 2019

Nextdoor is a good tool/resource for sharing things with people in your neighborhood. Free items to share or safety information. Just a nice way to stay connected to your neighbors in our ever fast paced lives.

For obvious commercial reasons (being able to put commercials ahead of user-posted content) Nextdoor has decided that it will default to display those postings selected by it's computer, instead of presenting postings in chronological order as it has done in the past. Comments and complaints to Nextdoor have gone unheeded. Nextdoor is still useful for neighborhood information, but they have clearly sold out to their marketing department.

Nextdoor unites neighbors by creating a forum where advice can be found about any local interests or needs. Free or 'for-sale' items can be listed, contractor and service providers reviewed, and hints for dealing with everything from parking tickets to roof repairs. The ability to post questions publicly and then continue via direct private messages makes it a safe space for sharing important information.

I love Nextdoor.com because it keeps me connected to neighbors I have and haven't met, it alerts me to lost pets and to activity in my area that I should know about. I also love that APD and the City post alerts to us on here as well!

I check on this website at least once a day. So far it has helped several members find their lost pets and share their stories with us. I always know when prowlers are lurking and anything weird or dangerous is happening in our neighborhood as well as local events taking place.

Great resources
December 21, 2019

It's a great way to keep in touch with what is happening around your area. I wish sometimes people would keep their negative comments out of the posts. Sometimes it is just mean not constructive at all. That would be my only negative comment

Very helpful tool
December 21, 2019

I look into Nextdoor several times a day to see sales, free items, neighborhood information and local planning highlights as well as info on restaurants and leisurely activities. This plethora of information always pays off and is worthwhile the little time it takes to read.

Nextdoor is such an incredibly informative tool in staying in touch with all aspects of the neighborhood... events, news, sales etc.
We don't always talk to or see our neighbors in person so Nextdoor is the next best thing!

I enjoy the up to the minute nature of the news and situations covered on the Nextdoor website. I also appreciate getting a variety of opinions on various issues without the conflict which can arise in large group conversations, which have their place, but can become hostile and uncomfortable. It also gives me the chance to consider other views and ponder the points they raise before the time to vote. And it keeps us connected, and gives us opportunity to act in a neighborly way.

Community conversation
December 21, 2019

Great way to connect with your community and stay informed. Not your typical social media. No need to offend or be offended, just neighbors living together and sharing and supporting.

Essentially, it's a community bulletin board, plus, and creates a sharing of comments and feelings within a defined area, in addition to serving as a neighborhood watch and news source. The downside is that inevitably there are residents who will moan and complain about things or each other publically, and even start arguments using Nextdoor as their buffer. And some comments made publically are highly in appropriate. Some people also tend to use it as their platform for expressing political or religious beliefs, which always create polarization.

I just found out yesterday that at least 4 of my neighbors cars were broken into twice in the last 2 weeks. I would have never known about this without Nextdoor.

We are all too busy to talk with each other. We get home at night and want to stay in. This app helps the neighborhoods stay connected and allows us to know of problems.

This app is great to report missing and found pets.

Nextdoor lets us know what stores are being opened and what is being constructed in our neighborhood. It also allows us to network and find local people for our service needs.

I just found out that a road was completed that cuts 15 minutes off my travel time when I need to go in that direction.

Management
December 21, 2019

I am afraid to say anything. I said nothing but great things to people and I was eliminated from Nextdoor and it took me two months to get back on. I asked many times why I was taken off and crickets. So I am afraid The amount I learn and the people are great. The Russia effect of management is disturbing
