We only have subdivision names.
That's interesting that so many share that name in a small area.Our subdivision is "The Estates" but there are a bunch of other subdivisions in our small town and the small city over with "Estates" in the name that it is difficult to know what anyone is talking about.
Our town is less than 13 square miles
I think this is how "sections" generally get their names.We only have subdivision names.
Wish I still was in the middle of nowhere. I'm stuck for a few more years in a trailer park. Then save for a house, then save for retirement. All this should be able to happen before I'm 100.Middle of Nowhere. We have more cows and chickens and wild turkeys and coyotes and deer than people. We love it!
I'm guessing it depends on area and probably who your audience is.I think this is how "sections" generally get their names.
I didn't even know about area/section names until house hunting shows on HGTV. I only know that mine is called asylum because that is what my phone labels them when I take a picture.

Most of them had a particular builder associated with them. Built in the mid-late 1990s to early 2000sThat's interesting that so many share that name in a small area.
Here it's common for subsets of subdivisions (or entire subdivisions too) to have the name Estates though that often refers to the size of the lot and type of home (sometimes there's a generous usage of it though lol). In my neighborhood for example there's 4 subsets to the subdivision with The Estates being one of them.
Every neighbourhood/subdivision in our city has a name too. The entire city is also divided by quadrants - SW/SE/NW/NE. Due to the exponential growth of the city over the past 25 years, it's also common now to describe a location as either "downtown" "mid-town" "deep South" or "far North". So for example, to be completely thorough, I'd say "We live in Lakeview, which is mid-town in the Southwest."We only have subdivision names.
