We want to make it easy for you to communicate with your friends, family, neighbors and others in your community. The Neighborhood
Exchange is a powerful tool for getting out the word about business experiences (good or bad), safety concerns and other important issues affecting your neighborhood.
 
When you know your neighbors, and have the ability to contact them, you have a valuable resource for gathering recommendations and for obtaining support for community issues. The Neighborhood Exchange wants to help you get to know your neighbors and be able to contact them when you need to.
