Nextdoor

Hundreds of neighborhoods are already using Nextdoor to build happier, safer places to call home.

I learned about Nextdoor.com from a CNN Newscast.  I researched it and found it to be a wonderful site for networking with our neighbors in a secure manner.

You are invited to join "Nextdoor"!

A lot of our neighbors in Post 2 have already joined. Please visit the site and read about the terrific features and benefits they offer.  You MUST live in Post 2 and be verified.  It's a secured site only for all of us in Post 2.  Keep in mind they only allow for 3,000 homes per "neighborhood", so Post 2 is a bit smaller than the actual boarders.

PLUS, IT'S FREE!

What is Nextdoor?

Nextdoor is a private social network for your neighborhood. It's the easiest way for you and your neighbors—and only you and your neighbors—to talk online and make all of your lives better in the real world. And it's free.

Hundreds of neighborhoods are already using Nextdoor to build happier, safer places to call home.

People are using Nextdoor to:

  • Find a new home for an outgrown bike
  • Track down a trustworthy babysitter
  • Quickly get the word out about a break-in
  • Find out who does the best paint job in town
  • Organize a garage sale
  • Ask for help keeping an eye out for a lost dog
  • Finally call that nice man down the street by his first name.

Nextdoor's mission is to bring back a sense of community to the neighborhood, one of the most important communities in each of our lives.

Their manifesto

We are for neighbors.

For neighborhood barbecues. For multi-family garage sales. For trick-or-treating.

We're for slowing down, children at play.

We're for sharing a common hedge and an awesome babysitter.

We're for neighborhood watch. Emergency response. And for just keeping an eye
out for a lost cat.

We believe waving hello to the new neighbor says, “Welcome” better than any doormat.

We believe technology is a powerful tool for making neighborhoods stronger, safer places
to call home.

We're all about online chats that lead to more clothesline chats.

We believe fences are sometimes necessary, but online privacy is always necessary.

We believe strong neighborhoods not only improve our property value, they improve
each one of our lives.

We believe that amazing things can happen by just talking with the people next door.

We are Nextdoor. We are simply you and your neighbors, together.
