As a very early user of Nextdoor, I found the service to be useful for neighborhoods. However I've found some unilateral change decisions to be poor for my use and my neighborhood, and web site bugs I've reported have been prioritized low and never corrected. And over the last year or two I've found an increase in focus for ads or other non-neighborhood-specific content, which certainly might make Nextdoor some money, but does no real good for the neighborhood.

Enjoy checking in every day. Love the neighbor recommendations and news. Why does this have to be 100 characters?

Okay
May 30, 2019

Well all was fine, but now I have no emails or anything; it just stopped. I thought I was taken off for some reason. I have tried to fix my settings but no good.

Excellent!
May 30, 2019

Nextdoor is an excellent way to communicate with the people in our area. Pets have been found and returned to their family, and much helpful information is provided. Some of the City of Ballwin Ordinances have been shared when people don't understand what is legal and acceptable.

Whether helping to find lost pets or sharing excellent workers for specific jobs, Nextdoor has given my neighborhood the right tools to communicate with each other! This online experience has also made us feel much safer and knowledgeable about events occurring around us1

OK Review
May 30, 2019

I believe the site was originally set up for reporting suspicious things going on in a neighborhood and to let others be aware. That happens rarely on the site now. I do like that plus 'lost and found pets' and being able to contact neighbors you don't see on a regular basis. I just delete the messages that don't pertain to my area. So so far it's been good.

Survey review
May 30, 2019

I have used Nextdoor a multitude of times looking for recommendations of various services. I find it to be a wonderful tool in many facets. I visit Nextdoor on an average of 2/3 times daily. I stay informed about things going on in our area whether good or bad.

Experiencing My Local Nextdoor
May 30, 2019

I stopped reading and posting on a regular basis on my local Nextdoor because there is too much negativity and bashing of neighbors. It has reached a point where I feel that the posters are online bullies.

I have put comments out about some of roads that were horrible and others agreed and some knew when repairs would be done. Like any site you will have those that like to down grade what your rant might be, but I have learned when that has happened to just take my post down and ignore them. I also like that when someone does a job that isn't their responsibility and someone puts a post on here about it. You find out who did it and you can give them a thank you.

Happy with Nextdoor
May 30, 2019

I love the Nextdoor app for various reasons. It would be nice if people would learn how to use it a little better. Remove items that are sold, one posting for multiple items and be kind to one another. It is a great tool to keep in touch and get advice as well as being able to get rid of some stuff!

Useful but a bit strange
May 30, 2019

Generally a useful website/app but there are some strange posts. Also, users are too sensitive and flag light humor. Maybe limit flagging? Not sure but it is a useful service.

Nextdoor is a terrific app to get to know your neighbors and you community at large. There are ways to connect, ask questions, get information, and sell stuff if you want. I like the usability of the app and how you can send invitations to those that have not connected yet.

I like Next Door, but I don't care for the recent change in the layout of the messages. Also, it seems like there are a lot more ads now. I'm still using it, but not as much as I once did.

I've found Nextdoor to be both a pleasant and helpful experience. There have been times when I've had questions about local matters that I've found the same things were on others' minds.
