Anyway, Is there also an informal and casual way to say neighbor? Like homie. For example, you see your neighbor in the street and you say to your friend, "that's my ..." | |
| Jun 19, 2016 at 17:50 | comment | added | user3169 | How big is "quite big"? You could say "in my area", "in my part of town", or "in my neighborhood". Can't think of a single word off-hand. neighbor is usually people living within a few houses of you. I would use neighborhood. | |

Most dictionaries are not clear about subtleties like what this question asks about neighbor, and the question actually asks something that's hard to look up: whether there is a word that matches a specific meaning. (Theoretically a thesaurus can do that, but we all know that seldom works in practice.) | |
