I really enjoy having this, I don't know many people. So seeing what people are saying is like having friends.

Love Nextdoor. Use it all the time. This is a great tool for anyone to use with ease and keep up with bad and good things going on around us. We also use it to help locate pets and/their owners.

Aggressive/rude responses
June 27, 2019

There are a few people who jump in to every conversation with aggressive negative responses. I hesitate to post for fear of becoming a target. I would like to see an option to "flag" these people and give them a "time out" for bad behavior. This shouldn't be a forum that allows name calling and shaming. I will stop using Nextdoor if this isn't brought under control

Love my community!
June 27, 2019

Nextdoor is the heartbeat of our community. I find out what big and small problems are, hear a range of opinions, people aren't afraid to identify themselves and therefore are open to be recognized on the street. I've accessed garage sales, events, bought things and had them repaired through Nextdoor.

Great Product, Leads Not Great
June 27, 2019

Nextdoor is a great idea and it is currently my favorite social media. The leads, however have turned off some participants to where they delete nextdoor. We have had unfair deletions and one lead who harassed me in PMs, I complained to corporate and that lead is still not tolerant of dissenting opinion and dissuades neighbors from using sponsored services, which I find ungrateful. But the problems with management has not stopped me and I remain a loyal nextdoor participant.

Excellent for finding lost animals and warnings about the location of coyotes.
Excellent for informing us about local crimes.
Terrible for angry people who should be on meds.
Terrible for those who feel the need to express their political beliefs.
Terrible for those who put down others.
Perhaps some rules for use could be implemented more strongly with those who break the rules losing the privilege of the site.

Helps Build Community
June 27, 2019

I like Nextdoor. It gives me the feel of being a closer part of my neighborhood and community. The sharing of news, opinions and information make it a cross between the old town newspaper (with an editorial page for opinions, of course) a town hall and maybe a garage sale!

I'm pretty busy so don't have time to read everything on "Nextdoor," but I do find it informative and covering a lot of various topics. The stuff about crimes, carprowls, package snatching, etc., does make me much more scared than I used to be, but I guess I'd rather have a good reason to be extra-careful than not. Can't think of how Nextdoor could be improved; it is what it is...!

Nextdoor-helpful or harmful?
June 29, 2019

I think, for the most part, Nextdoor is a decent platform. I enjoy the posts related to the welfare of animals and pets. I also think people use it as a platform to argue and say snarky comments back and forth. I do not enjoy that side of Nextdoor.

I use the site to stay up to date on issues/happenings in my area.
Also, if I'm searching for a service provider, I always check nextdoor first.

Enjoy shared information
June 27, 2019

I read the updates daily for my neighborhood. Sometimes the names of the neighborhood areas are confusing as to location. Otherwise like this as a resource for local news/concerns/safety/items for sale.

Lead Perspective
June 27, 2019

As a lead for many years, I am a regular user of ND, although my posts are limited. I have had an overall positive experience with my neighbors (and Steve Wymer lives in my neighborhood and I have worked with him exploring law enforcement liaison opportunities). I have used ND at least twice to solve thefts in our neighborhood, and worked closely with staff on package, thefts last year, connecting The San Jose PD to victims of theft, for placement of dummy packages. We successfully interrupted one serial theft series.

I've topped 700 invites and regularly try to engage more people to join.

I get tired of the negativity, as we all do, that seem to creep into threads but believe the flagging/review process is effective (and frankly takes it off our/leads' backs)
