I find ND most useful for distributing neighborhood events, lost pet issues, security/safety notices, and contractor recommendations. However, I find there are too many ads and a tendency for many issues to become "debate stages" that devolve into opinion contests. I like the availability of filters and controls that you can use to turn off comment postings and future notifications. More filters and controls would be nice.

Love this app
May 30, 2019

Keeps you informed and up to date on all things happening in your neighborhood. I use it everyday. Great place to buy and sell items and to get advise on most everything.

Quick responses

A lot of very nice people respond. Need to space out interviews for a timely opportunity. Need to fit in to my time restraints.

Good source for information
May 30, 2019

Love this site for local information, for sale and sales items. The only downside are the negative posts. Seems like no matter what the subject is, there is always someone who can't say anything nice.

This app reminds me of the old neighborhood bulletin board. It has things for sale, rent, lost, found, recommendations, alerts and info about neighbors.

I've met neighbors and become friends.

It's too bad some people are using the for sale section for commercial purposes. You can tell these people because they're selling a lot of new things, usually for more than you can get on line. I don't mind commercial enterprises on the site as long as they are identified as such.

Helpful website
May 30, 2019

Nextdoor is excellent for recommendations, neighborhood news, lost pets & information. Our particular neighborhood happens to have some unhappy people who lack filters but it is balanced (like life) with others who are a blessing. All in all a good website.

Great place to communicate with neighbors, and learn about neighborhood activities. It is also a real place to sell and buy items from neighbors.

I sometimes click on a post and want it to go to that particular one, but it does not. It even does not appear at all. Maybe it is my ipad. I like being able to communicate with my neighbors.

My review.
May 28, 2019

I joined Nextdoor a few years ago, and I have found it to be both informative and somewhat entertaining. I like being able to find out neighborhood news just by going online. It has helped me find out organizations to join, where I have met neighbors and other nice people. I also enjoy getting different perspectives on different issues.

It will not let you post if you disagree with a viewpoint. I made ONE comment in mild disagreement, was sent a scathing email with a severe reprimand and was immediately banned from posting, replying or using the service.

Too many ads and rants
May 26, 2019

Good experience overall but some people use this site to get on a soapbox to rant about something. Hard to navigate through the ads and rants to get the info you want to see.

When this app debuted I was really excited. It's been a great way to connect with neighbors and discuss issues of mutual concern. But there are SO MANY ads. I just ignore all the notifications now because they "notify" me of new ads, or of the fact that somebody said something yesterday that they've already notified me twice about. I still like the app, just there's more noise less signal.
