Great Site
June 13, 2019

This is one of the best sites I have. It's great to connect with neighbors and find out whats happening in our neighborhoods. The recommendation and referrals are great. Hopefully this site stays up a long time.

Informative beyond belief!
June 13, 2019

Love Nextdoor because it is an easy way to connect with so many neighbors in our area, ask questions, and find excellent vendors! Super helpful on safety tips, selling items, and repair individuals. Excellent website!

Not bad at all!
June 13, 2019

Love it when it first started but I knew free for life would be too good to be true. The ads can be annoying but would still recommend. Along with postcards and flyers, I wish there was a sign template we could use create to stick in people's yards. I've gotten a lot of folks to sign up but not 100% of neighbors

It's okay
June 13, 2019

Kind of keeps me aware of what's going on in the area but too many people are still allowed to be opinionated instead of being required to just post facts.

I have enjoyed using Nextdoor immensely since I heard about it back in 2013. It keeps getting better as groups are added that help to inform each neighborhood what is going on close by. It has helped bring neighbors together who may never have connected. It gives you a feeling of security as you can reach out to all your neighbors if you need help. I look forward to the future growth and where it will take us.

Local Utility
June 13, 2019

Nextdoor has helped me connect with neighbors, find cheap furniture, and stay informed with what's happening in my neck of the woods. There are crazies, sure, but that's a reflection of our society, not the app. As long as you understand that, you're golden.

Really appreciate recommendations
June 13, 2019

The primary reason that I joined Next Door is to take advantage of the experience of my neighborhood consumers with so many types of vendors. I have benefited from some excellent service reps, techs, etc. And I have tried to provide referrals when others are seeking experience in an area with which I'm familiar.
I think we can do without the political opinions. And I get concerned for people who are continually losing their pets, but I guess that's a big help for those folks. Overall, I think it is a very helpful service.

I use ND all the time to check on yard sales, local recommendations and safety info. I've met such great neighbors when I've gone to pick up fresh eggs, honey and all sorts of free stuff. Probably most dear to my heart is how ND helped me get my dog back 2 days after workers accidentally let him out. Thanks NextDoor!

Useless

Some information on Nextdoor is senseless and useless. It takes up space for some other better information.

I have enjoyed reading the items on Nextdoor. A lot seems to be negative things. I would like to see more people use it to post Garage Sales, Bake Sales and other things going on in the Northend.

Nice way to get to know some of your neighbors and find out what's going on...
I read it most days, or parts of it anyway...
I feel strongly about the lost animals that are reunited with their families

NextDoor.com experiences
June 4, 2019

NextDoor.com is a great value-added resource for our neighborhood. At first, you tend to look at it as Facebook for neighborhoods, but it is much more. Unlike 30 years ago, people don't come outside and visit much. Nextdoor is a way of getting to know who lives locally. Also, Nextdoor is a valuable source of info for contractors and services that others have used and have good experiences with.

Recommendations
June 4, 2019

I am frustrated with the number of folks asking for suggestions on who to hire for various jobs who have apparently not yet checked the Classified section of Nextdoor to see who has already been suggested and reviewed. Other than that, I think this is a valuable service to the neighborhoods!

Nextdoor will put you in nextdoor jail for any topic that anyone finds offensive. Regardless of the actual content of the post.

At some point, we have to stop pandering to the lowest common denominator of what's offensive and be able to have some semblance of free speech.

I'm honestly becoming somewhat disturbed with how easily everyone is ok with rampant censorship in the name of PC culture.

Too many old posts

Way too many old posts recycled as new posts in Nextdoor Digest. Some things stay on for weeks, even past the date of an event.

I would like it to be easier for people who are not tech savvy. I find it hard to get more of the info i want and less of the information I am not interested in. And how to get to a spot on the site that will show me where to go to find out what to do to solve this

Hello. Placing a review here so perhaps I could get a response from a person who works at NextDoor. I have 2 homes and tried to set up 2 Nextdoors. The app really makes it difficult to set up more than 1 home location therefore I used my first name twice. Evidently this program verifies your legal name against your address and because they do not like my name I am removed from using the application. Is this discrimination? Next door please clean this up!
