Five Apps to Help You Connect With New Neighbors

While social media can help people feel more connected than ever before, it can still be challenging to meet new people or learn about an area if you’ve just moved in. From staying informed about security risks to finding local services or restaurant recommendations, there are plenty of essential things to know about your new community. The following apps can help connect you with your new neighbors, allowing you to share, communicate, and even coordinate community events.

MyCoop

MyCoop is a neighborhood app designed for apartments. It simplifies communication within units by allowing for easy communication and collaboration. The app connects tenants with their neighbors and property managers, and is free and secure. Members can share and receive real-time updates on the platform.

Nextdoor

This app is a premier private social network for neighborhood correspondence. It is a secure and exclusive platform where members can share everything about their neighborhood. Members can also create events, sell items, learn about new rentals, and inquire about local services.

ioby

ioby is a crowdfunding platform that brings people together in a bid to make positive changes in their communities. It connects neighbors and pools resources to complete local projects and raise awareness about community needs. Users can join existing projects or start their own to help their neighborhood.

Lotsa Helping Hands

This social care mobile app allows users to coordinate help, communicate updates, and receive emotional support in their neighborhoods. It helps neighbors learn about those in need of care in their community and identify the caregivers. On the app, you can either offer to help those in need or share such tasks with neighbors.

Ring Neighborhoods

Previously a feature on the Ring App, a product of Amazon’s smart-doorbell company, the Ring Neighborhoods app is a type of neighborhood watch where members can discuss their security issues, and share and receive real-time updates.
