I enjoy Nextdoor as it helps to keep me updated to date on what is happening in my community. It also assists in helping my neighbours.

Good neighborhood resource
May 23, 2019

Nextdoor is a good neighborhood resourse; however it is poorly used by some people. I personally do not like the new 'digest' format and prefer the previous format. More user-friendly training might help. The boundaries for our neighborhood are not accurate and include another neighborhood.

Opinions
May 23, 2019

Some good and some not so good. Once people arguing on Nextdoor. I have gotten so many good people from asking on Nextdoor. I would like to know how to take mine off when I have no need for it to be on there. Mostly I like the experience. Just my opinions!

Nextdoor helps neighbors
May 23, 2019

I really like Nextdoor for the heads-up neighbors share. I dislike one person using it as a dog adoption site! Some people feel the need to make snide comments which I don't like.

Good and Bad
May 23, 2019

The first thing to be aware of, as in life in general sometimes it is hard for different socioeconomic neighbors to get along. The app can be useful but also can cause bickering and disputes. My best advice to enjoy the site is not to bring up social, political or religious views.

May 23, 2019

In general it's helpful for posting lost animals and crime but there is too much bickering back and forth between "neighbors" on any subject posted. I am a lead and get very tired of complaints between posts and deleting reported posts. When voting to delete a post or not there needs to be a better way to tell the poster why you voted that way.

It is great to help us find lost animals, give or sell items, hire helpers such as plumbers or
Tudors, and even to let people ventilate about things like dog poop.

Great Community Resource!
May 23, 2019

Lots of Community stuff that sometimes is helpful or meaningful. Often times extremely helpful! I also find it refreshing that we can have our own community information restricted to our community.

NDPV
May 23, 2019

I have been a Lead now for almost six years and for the most part my experience has been good. Better indexing and search tools for the CG would be a big help. Things change and unless we read everything every day we have no idea what is current. A way for Leads to contact support like the old *******@nexteoor.com would be very helpful. We have almost 1500 members in NDPV and have had very few problems. I think all in all most of our members think ND is a help for the neighborhood.

Wonderful community site
May 23, 2019

Love connecting with my community and getting quick feedback to issues that are important to me. I especially like knowing about crime in the area and getting assistance to community questions.

Joined Nextdoor at a different neighborhood. It was interesting to say the least. There were so many activities mentioned about what went on in the neighborhood. Lots of dog snatchers. While it's good to know where your pets are, many were great full.

Learn a lot from neighbors regarding services available. Only negative is how gossipy some postings are but like the ability to turn off certain people.

A lot of our local posts have devolved into ranting and long threads of bashing one neighbor's opinion or another's. Or fear about a brown person. Or someone who's suspicious because they don't "fit in". Or lots of "did your power go out?", "did you hear X sound?". Occasionally there is something of interest and informative but mostly you just get to see a lot of ugly fighting.

I've been using this website for a couple of years. It is a good way to disseminate information however, I cut back because of the personal advertisements.

NextDoor review
May 23, 2019

Generally great. Only bad with political soap boxing or busy bodies. You guys are doing better on the former. Perfect site for reporting crime, finding pets and learning about good vendors. An invaluable service,

I was one of the original members from my subdivision, and have been credited with recruiting hundreds of new members. I promote Nextdoor because I see the value in neighbor contact and interaction. I marvel at the direction some threads take - some quite helpful, some loving, some mean-spirited. But, hey, we are a large neighborhood, full of interesting and diverse people, so that is what makes it so enjoyable and interesting.
