boroughwide

Across the borough

Boroughwide means affecting or extending throughout an entire borough: a boroughwide recycling program, boroughwide elections.

The term appears most often in New York City, where the five boroughs—Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, the Bronx, and Staten Island—function as distinct administrative units.
