I find Nextdoor to be a useful tool keep neighbors informed, buy/sell, and find recommendations. Sometimes people get their feeling hurt when opinions are shared, but that's normal I guess. My experience has been a good one so far.
This is a good site but it seems that to many people want to complain about what someone wrote (and the comments are not nice). Can we stick to providing information, making recommendations, finding lost animals, selling items, helping people, etc and get back to its original purpose.
I have been using Nextdoor since it was introduced in Winchester. I have used it to stay updated about different happenings in my neighborhood and in our city.
I like Nextdoor because it helps me to know what people in the community are thinking about (needs, wants and experiences).
We are new to the community, through Neighborhood we know what is happening around the community, it's an excellent alert system for lost pets, free items, garage sales, homes for sale, people that have special needs, giving the community a chance to help a neighbor, giving a call out to our wonderful fire, sheriff and police department. Special events at the library or parks, all in one place, easy to access and it comes to you!
I recently moved to a new area and next door has helped me find activities in the area and I have bought, sold, exchanged items with my neighbors.
Nextdoor is a terrific website to share info with people in your area. You have access to many great resources and can customize info on all your hobbies and interests.
Very helpful neighbors, no negative remarks. I love being able to get on here and see what is going on in the neighborhood. I can't get out as much as I used to so this is a good way to keep up with things.
It's nice to get information on what's going on around our area.not much on latley to see. There's alot of stuff that happen's around here that does not get told.the new's paper or evening new's don't know either.we have alot of speeder's, some stealing, and trashie place's that are driving are property value's down and no one does a thing about anything.
Next Door allows neighbors to connect in a quick and easy way. Posting about events in one's neighborhood, in outlying neighborhoods, and in the city. It helps to build community.
I like reading everyone's comments re helpful information that all can benefit from, plus actual updates re neighborhood activities.
Easy to use. Great way to connect with neighbors! Useful for so many things... I don't have any more to say
Lots of good info. Keeps us informed of the good and bad going on. It also helps us find reputable businesses
I have used Nextdoor to share what you is going on in the neighborhood, to buy & sell items and to offer free merchandise. It is a good tool for getting recommendations on local merchants.
It doesn't matter what season it is or what the weather, thanks to Next door you know what happening NOW in your area. It is important to have that chance to keep in touch.
I've both asked for & suggested local tradespeople via this site to do a variety of jobs in my home. The results have been stellar! It's a great site for the sharing of information within both my immediate neighborhood as well as surrounding areas. Always enjoy learning about new retailers / restaurants in my area based on Nextdoor users comments about them. Happy to be part of this Nextdoor community!
I love the site w the things listed for sale, requests for information etc... but sometimes the negativity is annoying.
I have been amazed at the number of responses I received from my request for items to help homeless veterans! It is heartwarming to hear from so many generous, caring Villagers!
Always contain knowledgeable information. I enjoy the comments and all the updates within the community. I also like that the community is kept well informed.
Its great to find out what is going on in our adjoining communities! Neighbors passing along recommendations and warnings makes us a closer community!
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.
