CHEVY CHASE COMMUNITY SOCIAL MEDIA PLATFORMS

Chevy Chase has two widely used  social media outlets that are open and welcoming to the community to post to in real time. They are a bit different from each other and seem to have varying audience types. Here is a brief rundown on these two platforms and what you might expect to find on them, the number of members they have, and how they operate.

• Chevy Chase Chatter - A members only Facebook group. It was started in August 2018 by local resident Stacy Beck, and as of May 19, 2023 it has 2,800 subscribers. It provides Chevy Chase residents with unedited communications in real time. Posts vary but of the two platforms it is the most child-centric and family oriented. Posts containing personal attacks on private individuals or hate speech are not permitted and will be removed.
• NextDoor - Launched in the U.S. in 2011, it has close to  8,630 members in DC in the immediate Chevy Chase area. Members are connected based on their addresses and grouped into local neighborhoods (e.g., the area they designate as West Chevy Chase DC has 2,331 members as of May 4, 2023). It provides unedited real-time communication with neighbors. Members can post to their own or several neighborhoods at once.  Posts include local news and events, buying, selling, and service recommendations. Rules govern what members can publish.
