When neighbors start talking,good things happen
Nextdoor takes the best of social media, adds a spoonful of intimacy, and wraps it in a blanket of privacy and comfort. – Anne Clauss, Nextdoor Hamilton
We have an elderly neighbor who has cancer and is quite frail. She had a security issue and when other neighbors got wind of it through Nextdoor, they came out of the woodwork to offer assistance. – Bob Thornburg, Nextdoor Sol y Lomas
The value of Nextdoor hit close to home when a teenager was diagnosed with meningitis. His parents used Nextdoor to alert everyone in the community and very likely saved lives. – Nicole Perkins, Nextdoor Woodside
We've seen lost pets returned in minutes, ping pong tables finding new homes in a matter of posts, and a heightened sense of security in the neighborhood when a recent crime wave hit. – Brent Bamberger, Nextdoor Sleepy Hollow
