From a hello to a first plan
One person can
get it started.
Find an existing group first. If there isn’t one for your place, give your people a clear reason to join.
Look for your community →Introduce your place.
Choose a name, broad location, and who belongs. Decide whether to have a public introduction or a fully private group.
Complete review and setup.
Nayborlee reviews new groups before they open. After approval, follow your account’s setup steps, including Organizer coverage if your group is fully private.
Invite your first people.
Use the joining option your group has chosen. Post a welcome and one easy plan, then invite others to help shape what comes next.
Make it local
Describe your shared place without a travel calendar.
Explain the area and who belongs. Keep absence dates, property access instructions, and private contact details out of the public introduction.
- Community name, broad area, city, and ZIP
- Seasonal and year-round residents included
- Official local-service and weather information links
- A suitable shared meeting place or seasonal tradition

Before the first hello
Questions before you get started.
Practical answers for the people who live here and the people helping them connect.
See current pricing →Can seasonal and year-round neighbors use the same group?
Yes. Explain who belongs and welcome both perspectives. Keep expectations realistic about who is nearby and available to help.
Can I belong to my home neighborhood and this community?
Yes. People can belong to more than one community, subject to each group’s joining rules. Keep posts and arrangements in the relevant group.
How can we avoid advertising when homes are empty?
Keep travel schedules and property access details out of public introductions. Even inside a member group, share only what is needed with the people involved. A fully private group removes the public introduction and listings.
Does the group provide property management or emergency monitoring?
No. Neighbors can coordinate voluntary help, but the group does not provide a caretaker, emergency dispatch, or guaranteed monitoring. Use the appropriate official or professional service when needed.
What is public, and what stays inside the group?
A free group has a public introduction with its name, purpose, and broad location. Member conversations and member lists stay inside the group. A fully private group has no public introduction or search listing and uses the Organizer plan. Keep private addresses and access details out of the public introduction.
What does it cost?
Neighbors participate free. Starting a group with a public introduction is free. Fully private groups use one Organizer plan per community; see Pricing for current rates, trial eligibility, and renewal terms. View pricing and trial terms.
Can we choose how people join?
Yes. A group with a public introduction can use invitations, reviewed requests, or direct joining. Fully private groups are invitation-only. Explain who the group is for in its introduction so people can choose the right place.
What happens after I propose a group?
Nayborlee reviews new groups before they open. After approval, complete the setup shown in your account, choose any required Organizer coverage for a fully private group, and then welcome your first members.
Can more than one person help organize?
Yes. More than one person can help organize a community. Start with a small team and agree who welcomes people, helps with joining requests, and keeps the first few plans moving.
Where can we find things to do nearby?
Browse Happenings for county activities and area guides, then share a relevant link with your group. Check the original organizer’s listing for the latest time, location, cost, and accessibility details before making a plan. Private group plans stay separate from public activity listings. Explore Happenings.
Can we discuss local caretakers and service providers?
Members can share firsthand recommendations. Independent providers can submit separate offerings for review; a sponsored offering should not be presented as a neighbor’s recommendation.
What should we do after severe weather?
Start with official local updates and only make plans that are safe and appropriate. Do not ask neighbors to enter unsafe areas or assume someone can check a property.
It starts with your people
