July 22, 2019

Overall Next Door is a valuable asset.
I like being able to deal with locals, neighbors.
I like the recommends also.
I DO NOT like the arguments and gossip.

Very informative!

Keeps everyone aware of what is happening in our Wildwood community. We should keep in mind that this is not a device to vent frustrations. Look at it as a great source of becoming aware of our lovely Wildwood community and the people who live here. Thank u.

nextdoor.com is an evil business. It encourages crimes by encouraging
Crime-loving neighbors to report neighbors. nextdoor.com closed my
Account without any notice. Basically I just posted on the crime board
About a random neck/chin cutting crime on July 9th Sunday noon time at
Market and 2nd St in downtown San Francisco. Because I work in San
Francisco so I am very concerned. I want to prevent the harm by
Finding a helmet or mask. Some good neighbors are very sympathetic
Some evil neighbors said it is not relevant because they do not live
In San Francisco. The evil neighbors also said I am mongering fear
Since it is not reported in English media. But it is reported in a
Chinese media. https://www.worldjournal.com/*******/article-3--1/
And cutting neck to random people is not the first time. I still
Remember the last year one
http://abc7news.com/bart-stabbing-victim-recalls-horrific-attack-loss-of-sister/*******/
Most recently a lot of Chinese residents are harassed in San
Francisco. All I care is how to prevent. I am very positively
Thinking. Not fear mongering. Just cannot and do not want to be a
Victim. No matter what the neighbors said, I thanked all of them. But
Later on I found I could not log on any more. nextdoor.com encourages
Neighbors to report without any due process. They just believed and
Sided the reporter and closed my account without any notice and also
Blocked my address which has multiple residents. I complained to
nextdoor.com but after 72 hours I got no response. Believe me anybody who side with criminals will attract criminals.

Neighborhood communication
July 20, 2019

I like it, very handy to have in order to communicate with neighbors. I've had an experience wherecI thought the leads monitoring it were way to much but overall good.

This site demands that you use your real name. They use your real name when you post something on there site. Given the way how people act today and you not knowing who is looking at your post. It could cause you trouble from anyone on there. They give you the bull that safety is there up most concern. Do not believe that for a minute if that was the case then your name should not matter. You have to give them your street address and they confirm who you are. The people on this site can cause problems as I myself was dealing with a jerk on there. If you do decide to use there site be aware of there rules and keep in mind that you could get problems from the site or from people you do not know. If you violate there rules they will either deactivate your account or suspend you for some days. Make sure that you really read as many negative reviews on here they are true.

I get a lot of value out of Nextdoor's network, but I can't stand the native app, the web app is nice and fast, but the native app is slow and unresponsive. It either needs a rewrite or the API needs to be opened up so 3rd parties can hook into it.

Too much unrelated info
July 20, 2019

Our county was invited to participate for sheriff's information. We are in overload with information from the county now. I can't figure out how to uninvite them.

I like Next Door
July 20, 2019

I have found several posts with helpful and interesting information. I have posted requests for recommendations and always get good results. It seems to be a site that is well managed and secure. I feel safe using it. Sometimes there are tirades about housing or some other issue but I just don't read them.

Get to know your neighbors
July 20, 2019

Nextdoor has been a great tool for letting me know what is going on in the neighborhood. I have received help when I asked and found great helpers by answering "ads". I have recommended Nextdoor to several friends.

Review
July 19, 2019

I'm grateful to my neighbors for posting important information such as coyote sightings, residential burglaries, car burglaries, suspicious folks in the neighborhood, etc. I am also pleased with the recommendations of electricians, plumbers, and other workers. It helps me to know who to call. I'm very glad I joined this group of neighbors.

Challenges
July 19, 2019

As Lead at a relatively new neighborhood, the verifying addressed is very time consuming. This is because at least 20 homes a month are added and new streets are unrecognized. There needs to be a better way. New neighbors rarely take the time to work through the process.

Survey review
July 19, 2019

ND is great for getting the word out about lost pets, alerts to a specific neighborhood and timely reminders. Some people tend to get very snarky and most of the time the leads do little or nothing. It is annoying. If you sign up to be a lead then pay attention and lead.

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.
