Patch's Directory is a compilation of businesses and organizations in your town. Basically, your town square without the brick and mortar. Each listing allows users to leave comments and ratings as well as keep up with news and events relating to their favorite places.  The listings also allow business owners the option of "Claiming" the listing and utilizing them as portals or online storefronts.  We don’t think you’ll find a more comprehensive local directory anywhere else online.   

(To find out how to add a missing listing, please see How do I add a Missing Listing?

If you are a business owner and wish to read more about claiming your business, please see "I'm a business owner, how do I claim a listing?")
