Question - Delete Neighborhood from Neighbors Settings?

Does anyone know how to delete a neighborhood from the Neightbors Settings in the Ring app? I have a neighborhood that I need to delete and cannot figure out how to get rid of it. Path in my app is... App Main Page once opened-\> Neighbors-\> Gear Icon-\> Now I see two seperate Neighborhood Names to choose from, I need to delete one. I see nowhere to delete/remove a neighborhood name, I cannot figure this out.

      I have this same problem. When I created my account the Ring system created two neighborhoods (which are excatly the same). I also cannot figure out how to gt rid of one of them. Tried everything . . . And to go one step further, I would like to remove the neighboorhood section from the dashboard, but that does not seem to be an option.

      Hey Neighbors! At this time, there is not an option to delete a neighborhood, but if you are concerned about getting alerts for a neighborhood you are no longer apart of, you can turn off the alerts for this area. Here are the steps: - Go into your Ring App - Go to the three lines at the top left and click on Neighbors - Click on the gear icon at the top right - Find the neighborhood you no longer wish to have alerts for and select "Alert Preferences" - For schedule, turn this to Off - Under Alert Types, deselect all types. This should help you at least get rid of any notifications you may still get for this neighborhood in the meantime!

        Just to make sure that we are all on the same page... The subject of this post is about deleting NEIGHBORHOOD addresses, not the normal ring account addresses. They are two differnt functions and are not the same so please lets not provide discussion or instructions on how to try to delete normal Ring account addresses as the ability to delete normal ring account addresses work fine and are NOT the subject of this post. Deleting NEIGHBORHOOD addresses is the problem and subject of this post. Ring, you really need to fix this, there is no reason we should not be able to delete neighborhoods from our account... Doug

        DAPAQ2, you are spot on! Having moved 2 neighborhoods already, this will become a pain if neighborhoods continue to pile up. Ring supervisor folks, this is becoming a problem, especially with more than 2 neighborhoods. We understand that we can turn off notifications, but why is it so difficult for you to update the app so we can delete "NEIGHBORHOODS" the same way we delete "ADDRESSES". Please look into this!

        Thank you for your continued feedback, neighbors! As Chelsea mentioned above, locations are unable to be removed, but can be changed. Our [help center article](https://support.ring.com/hc/en-us/articles/360035191212-Joining-Your-Neighborhood) has instructions to fit most scenarios of adding or changing locations for the Neighbors App. As we value our neighbors' feedback, we've shared this thread with our teams here. The Community also has a [Feature Request board](https://community.ring.com/t5/Feature-Request-Board/idb-p/Feature_Request_Board). Feel free to add this and any future feature requests there. This will help us to organize and share your requests with our teams here, as well as allow other neighbors to comment and add interest, all in one place. :)

        Marley\_Ring reply reads to me as "we are not going to do anything about this, deal with it the way it is". And they also say they have shared this thread with their teams (they already said that months ago) but this issue still has not been fixed and has been almost one year since it was originally brought to their attention, Ring has no intentions of fixing this for its customers. Changing neighborhood locations? The only thing we can change by reducing the milage radius of activity notifications and that is not a good enough solution since we still get notifications regarding those neighborhood locations. It also reverts back to the old address by default each time I log into my account, we NEED to be able to delete old neighbors from our account, being able to delete them will end this issue. Ring please fix this issue by adding a delete function for neighborhood locations!

        We found out Ring filters out posts depending on the content. We attempted to share a video with our neighbors and Ring responded by blocking our post simply because they didn't think it was useful. Our neighbors all thought it was useful so why didn't Ring think so? We all found other ways to share and now are looking for a way to remove ourselves from the neighborhood setting. As others have said in this topic, we need a way to completely remove the neighborhood setting. We had to opt in for the neightborhood service when we first install the app so there must be a way to opt out, legally speaking.

          Hey @robmal. You will be unable to delete a neighborhood address or change it, but you will have a new one created when you set up your devices on the new location within the Ring app! From there, just mute notifications for your old neighborhood and then just make sure you're toggled to the new neighborhood within the app! :)

          Ring Representatives, Do not mark this thread as "SOLVED", it is NOT SOLVED. When Ring fixes the problem by allowing us to delete an address from the neighborhood settings, then this thread can be marked "Solved", until then it is not solved!
