Thinking of starting a Marion-Franklin Block Watch / Community Involvement website. If this page is inactive, I'll do so. If there's activity here, I'll stall plans. BTW, I'm new here...

Just wanted to let you know that several Southfield, Greenhill Acres, and Cambria neighbors are using Nextdoor to discuss community events and neighborhood news!

If you haven't heard of Nextdoor, it's a free website and mobile app that gets neighborhoods connected through a private and secure website. Members verify their address, so people who don’t live in the neighborhood can’t see what's being discussed. This makes Nextdoor really useful for block watch discussions, but also great for organizing yard sales, listing things for sale, making recommendations for service providers, and connecting with neighbors that you haven't met before!

Nextdoor also creates a neighborhood directory of other members in the neighborhood to help you remember names and faces. Best of all - it’s completely free!
