How to find the best and worst streets in your neighborhood

Once you've joined StreetAdvisor and written a review of your street, and maybe your city too, you may be wondering what else you can do. One of the fun things about the many new features StreetAdvisor introduced recently is proximity awareness.

Say I've started with a search for Portland Oregon (click on the link to go to the search results page). This is what it looks like. Below the city outlined in the red box, reviews of streets within that city are listed in decreasing proximity from the center of town.

Then I click on the Portland, Oregon, United States search title, which takes me to the Portland Overview page. This page lists the best streets in and around the city.

Another fun thing to do is to find the best and worst streets in your neighborhood. Click on the Reviews tab and use the Sort by feature. Click on the drown down menu and select one of the options, such as Highest Rating or Lowest Rating. Here are what these searches look like.

Browsing StreetAdvisor is now much more exciting. For streets with multiple reviews, such as Market Street, San Francisco, California, United States (StreetScore 90.83), you can do this kind of filtering down at the street level to see how different community members rate the street. The image above show the best reviews, and the image below shows the worst reviews.

Moving up to the state level, you can find the best and worst streets across multiple cities. Try  California, United States StateScore 69.06), where streets in San Francisco, Los Angeles, Freso and many more smaller cities and towns are rated.

We think these new tools make browsing StreetAdvisor much more fun, but don't take our word for it. Try them out yourself then tell us what you think. StreetAdvisor offers many avenues to share your opinions. You can write a street or city review, comment on reviews written by others and discuss issues by posting topics in forums.
