Find the interaction great with my fellow neighbors. Get to read about things I didn't know about whether food spots, community events, town hall meeting, encouragement etc...
I like using nextdoor app very much because it makes me feel a strong sense of community. I like to read what is happening in the neighborhood and use the used item market to buy and sell. Two things I think nextdoor can do better are:
1. Customizable news notification so I can choose what type of news and which neighborhood news I can receive. I feel I am receiving too many emailnotification from my neighbourhood on nextdoor about everything but meanwhile I can't access certain news happening in nearby neighborhoods.
2. The market needs serious improvement. The pictures uploading is a main issue. I wish I can choose the order of pictures being shown and especially care which one to be shown as the front listing picture. However, the system seems to arrange them randomly. And recently, if you ever need to edit your item, after the editing is done, all the pictures are gone. That may explain why so many listings are missing pictures.
I delete a lot of comments without reading. I am too busy sometimes and appreciate the first words describing comment. I appreciate the concerned neighbors and read those.
I appreciate hearing about what is going on in Malibu especially how others who lost their homes are dealing with rebuilding.
The Nextdoor site has given us a Very Good way to find reliable home repair people/businesses and a way to stay in touch with local 'happenings'. We were able to locate a VERY good, local plumber and carpenter. This has also served as a good local way to alert close neighbors to such things as lost pets, suspicious area activity, and other items of local interest.
I check in daily with Nextdoor Peachtree Corners (NDPC) to stay informed re. Issues, recommendations, etc., from my neighbors and also post and reply. I have had nothing but positive experiences. What I would suggest is that the lead(s) remind everyone to read previous replies before replying and about the available options, i. E., to posters who have lost a pet to edit their heading and close the discussions when they are reunited with pet, i. E., "Dog found!" and then close the discussion, and if an item for sale has sold, indicate that.
Sometimes there are items related to crimes, referral for home repair or new business openings.
I find Nextdoor helpful in knowing what is happening in my own and nearby subdivisions. I've also noticed the City posts helpful information. I think it's a great resource.
This is a very good and useful app. Communication and information are keys to keep neighbors well informed, hence our community is safer.
I find it helpful regarding recommendations or information about our area. I also like to be able to give information or recommendations myself and promote the businesses that deserve the recognition
A good way to get communication throughout the neighborhood and connect with your neighbors that otherwise wouldn't normally connect.
Much like the for sales section, also people I buy from are very nice with great principals and values...
I have been on Nextdoor for may years in many different cities. It has been great to find out about local events and to get recommendations. It is helpful to know that the recommendations are based on real experience.
Good way to find out what's going on around me. Also a good way to get your neighbors recommendations.
I like most of there content on Nextdoor
Like the police activity, weather issues road conditions lost and found wanted /for sale and neighborhood activities.
What I really don't care for is when its used as a sounding board with a lot of things that other people Should do.
Nextdoor has been a great source for our neighborhood news! From lost and found pets to suspicious activity reports. I have recommended it to many of my friends and colleagues!
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.
