What is NeighborWho?

It ties property records and owner/resident details to addresses, letting users research who lives nearby. This guide covers the property listing described in the catalog for NeighborWho; removing it here does not erase the original government, employer, court, property, or social source.
Catalog-described data types for NeighborWho
- •Full name
- •Current and past addresses
- •Property ownership and value data
- •Relatives and household members
- •Phone numbers
- •Neighbors at the same address
Why Your Data Appears on NeighborWho
Catalog source context (not a complete provenance finding): NeighborWho draws on the BeenVerified data pipeline of property records, public records and commercial data, linking your name to addresses you are associated with. The record can be matched through your name and any address you own or have lived at. Compare the listing with your own details, save the exact URL, and request removal only after confirming it is you.
Step-by-Step: How to Remove Your Data from NeighborWho
The provider may offer a no-charge request route, but terms can change. Verify the result against the live listing after submitting.
Open NeighborWho's opt-out database
Go to neighborwho.com/svc/optout/search/optouts, which NeighborWho's own FAQ links for opting out of its People Search results. No membership or account is needed.
Search your name and select your record
Search the database for your name and select the record that is yours. NeighborWho's instructions do not ask you to copy a listing URL.
Click the link in the verification email
Enter your email when asked, then verify the request by clicking the link in NeighborWho's verification email. The opt-out is not complete until you do.
Check your results
NeighborWho says that in most cases the change takes about 24 hours to take effect, and encourages you to check for yourself. For problems, it asks you to contact privacy@neighborwho.com.
How Long Does NeighborWho Removal Take?
This guide has no verified processing time for NeighborWho. Keep the confirmation or acknowledgement from the request, then search for the exact listing again after the route's last step to see whether it changed.
What Documents NeighborWho May Request
No routine ID requirement recorded

What to Do If NeighborWho Removal Fails
If the standard opt-out process does not work, follow these escalation steps in order:
If your NeighborWho listing reappears, preserve the original and new source URLs, compare the matching fields, and use the provider's current route for a follow-up request. A new listing does not by itself prove that the original request failed.
If the opt-out form is broken or the link has moved, email privacy@neighborwho.com with the subject "Do Not Sell / Delete: Personal Information" and a clear statement of your request plus your listing URL.
If NeighborWho does not respond within the period stated by its current notice or the law that applies to you, keep the request and any acknowledgement, then use the relevant regulator or complaint channel.
Alternative Options
Manual removal
The opt-out above is intended for NeighborWho specifically. Because providers operate independently, a broader cleanup usually requires separate review and requests for other sites; the time and fields vary by provider.
