Neighborhoods Of Kabul
A neighbourhood (British English, Irish English, Australian English and Canadian English) or neighborhood (American English; see spelling differences) is a geographically localised community within a larger city, town, suburb or rural area, sometimes consisting of a single street and the buildings lining it.

It is comparable to the United States House of Representatives or the House of Commons of the United Kingdom.
