Next door Experience
May 30, 2019

Most of the time the information shared is very helpful. I really enjoy being up to date on traffic, weather, safety issues, construction, etc. I would prefer not to read postings where people are bickering back and forth and won't let the subject end. I think they should be forced to use direct or private messaging and leave the rest of us out of the loop. Thank you.

NextDoor makes it personal!
May 30, 2019

ND makes it easy to live life in your neighborhood on a more personal level--make friends, hire contractors, air gripes/offer praise, find missing pets, sell stuff/buy stuff, and stay on top of potential crimes or suspicious individuals. It's a little heartbeat of my neighbors that I can access anytime. Love it!

It's a mess!
June 1, 2019

I've successfully used Nextdoor Felida for several years now and it's been an important part of my life, I've recommended it to many people. Lately it has been different and very difficult to use to the point of me considering dropping it all together. Also, there does not seem to be monitoring of this site anymore.
That makes me sad. I miss the old easy to use and informative Nextdoor. PLEASE go back to that.

Nextdoor nonsense
May 30, 2019

First off, I'm very grateful for Nextdoor. With regards to the recommendations, good tips, things for sale. Being notified of the latest going on in our city Costa Mesa. Lost and found. Especially seeing all
The neighbors pulling together to find missing Pets. What I can't stand is when people start taking the whole purpose of a post and taking it out of context and then bickering back and forth on Nextdoor then a whole bunch of people will chime in. Then it becomes a name calling thread that drives me crazy and it's usually the same few people.

I find many of the posts informative. It's disconcerting that the posts often take a detour when people post irrelevant or unkind remarks. Some are downright bizarre and troll-like.

Mixed reviews
May 30, 2019

Overall, I've enjoyed reading comments from others in the area; unfortunately some use language and post political opinions which don't belong here. I don't care for the recent changes which make it harder to read comments and which seem to let topics discussed linger for a while after a 'last' post. Also, the 'for sale' section shows pictures with articles which are nearly impossible to recognize; names of items would be more helpful! Again, the recent changes disappoint me.

My experience with Next Door
May 30, 2019

Hi, overall, it's ok Andi. I don't like that posts get deleted. I can understand obvious mean posts but most of the time something is deleted, it doesn't seem controversial. I hate that I can't renew my classified ad each week to keep it fresh. Craig's list allows this. Actually, classifieds are only good for 1 week unless you renew it with the link they send when it's posted. So I do use Craig's list more to sell my things. Also, I feel like I should be able to join other neighborhoods besides mine. Also, Sometimes it's really hard to find older posts. The search engine isn't great. What I do like is the connection I feel to my town. I have learned so much about my town through NextDoor. Thx

Great Site
May 30, 2019

Since moving here, Nextdoor has helped me learn about the area I now live in: the neighborhoods; friendly and helpful neighbors; as well as useful recommendations; getting the word out on lost pets; and a heads up on crime in the area. All conveniently in one spot!

Nextdoor neighbors
May 30, 2019

For the most part, quality information passed along. Every so often, a great debate starts and never ends... the beauty of forums and threads, you can easily just shut it down. But with quality and pertinent information on respective neighborhoods, I think Nextdoor is a much needed site and should be in each and every neighborhood, no matter how small. Thank you!

I think that the site is terrific for sharing issues neighbors need/want to know, ie stranger/danger issues, lost pets, local concerns. I do not like the recent issues around begging for money or political opinions. Those should be reserved for GoFundMe or Facebook or another site.

I have been a member of Nextdoor.com for several years for my neighborhood. I find it very informative and interesting in that it is a platform for community activity both good and not so good. It keeps neighbors informed.

Mostly Awesome Neighbors!
May 30, 2019

For the most part, this site is great for sharing important and /or useful information. Unfortunately, there are always a few bad seeds: name calling, and disagreements are threaded throughout. I see no way to enforce a system to make our neighbors stay courteous and respectful.
