Nextdoor Business Scraper

🏘️ Turn public Nextdoor pages into local data

For local researchers, analysts, and data teams, Nextdoor Business Scraper collects public Nextdoor business and city pages without source credentials. It saves structured business details, city metadata, community links, quality status, and source URLs so you can review local information in one dataset.

Use it to:

• Collect public city-page details with Nextdoor City Scraper.
• Find businesses in one area by category or keyword with Nextdoor Business Search.
• Build a structured directory from public business pages with Nextdoor Business Directory.
• Turn a known public business page into structured fields with Nextdoor Business Scraper.
• Save source-linked rows from public Nextdoor pages with Nextdoor Scraper.

📍 Business and city data in each row

The dataset has one row for each first eligible business or city page result. It keeps the source URL and a quality status. Business rows can include identity, public contact details, categories, a neighbor summary, location, hours, images, claim status, and topics. City rows can include place details, resident counts, statistics, FAQs, neighborhoods, directories, groups, resources, and linked public pages when selected. Fields are omitted when the source does not show them.

When a business is found through discovery, discoveredFrom keeps the one submitted URL, keyword, or category that first led to the saved row.

▶️ Run a public page collection

Business pages

Submit one or more public Nextdoor business page URLs for known businesses.

Business search

Enter one area and one business category or keyword to find public businesses.

City pages

Submit one or more public Nextdoor city page URLs. Turn on Follow linked public pages to follow public neighborhood, business-directory, and resource pages linked from each city page. This can add results and may take longer.

Only fields for the selected target are used. The Actor reads publicly reachable pages and does not need Nextdoor credentials. An inaccessible page does not create a row. A saved page can have a qualityStatus of standard, partial, or restricted.

For a shorter run, set Maximum items to a positive number. Leave it empty to collect all available results until the source is exhausted.

❓ FAQ

What happens when a public page is not accessible?

An inaccessible page does not create a row. A saved page can have qualityStatus set to standard, partial, or restricted, so check that field before using it.

Can I follow pages linked from a city page?

Yes. Turn on followLinkedPages for a city-page run. Public neighborhood, business-directory, and resource pages linked from each city page can appear in city.linkedPages. This can add results and may take longer.

How do I choose a target?

Use Business pages for known public business URLs, Business search for one area and one business category or keyword, and City pages for public city URLs. Only fields for the selected target are used.

Can I collect all available results?

Yes. Leave maxItems empty to collect all available results until the source is exhausted. Set a positive value when you want the run to stop sooner.

What if the same business is found more than once?

The first eligible occurrence of the same source business is saved. Later matches from another submitted URL, keyword, or category are ignored. discoveredFrom describes only the first saved match.

Which business and city fields are optional?

Nextdoor may not show every field. Phone, email, website, address, location, hours, images, claim status, city statistics, and page links appear only when the public source exposes them. The Actor does not invent missing values.

Does it need a Nextdoor login or source API key?

No. It reads publicly reachable Nextdoor pages without buyer-supplied source credentials. Private or login-walled content is outside the Actor's scope.

Does it collect private posts, comments, or recommendations?

No. This Actor is for public business and city pages. Private or login-walled content such as neighborhood feeds, posts, events, comments, and individual recommendations or reviews is outside its scope.

Can one run mix several independent searches?

Choose one target per run. Business search accepts one area and one category or keyword. Run it again for another independent search.
