The social media platform aimed at connecting neighbors took in its latest haul sometime in or after August, the Information reports. It’s not known which investors led the series G round, but the new funds now give Nextdoor an estimated valuation of around $1.5 billion–that’s up $400 million from the company’s $1.1 billion valuation it received during its last financing round in 2015.
