Yeah, but is it really Nextdoor that feeds this paranoia or is it just the true face of american suburb, that some, more secure feeling americans, like yourself weren't aware of?

I wouldn't call a self selected vocal minority the 'true face' of anything.

There have always been 'get off my lawn' types, predating nextdoor. Nextdoor is also not heavily used in every single neighborhood across america.

Even this conversation thread is driven by the selected group of people that participate in the specific social network in question.

Its not a vocal minority from my experience. I live in a safe neighborhood in Southern California and there are hundreds of people like that here. I have seen people posting photos from their door cameras and posting warnings about seemingly normal things.
