neighbor's

Belonging to adjoining resident

Neighbor's is the possessive form of neighbor—someone who lives nearby or occupies adjacent space.

It indicates something belonging to or associated with that person: the neighbor's dog, my neighbor's lawn, I borrowed my neighbor's ladder.

The apostrophe-s construction works for both singular possession and as a contraction of "neighbor is" or "neighbor has": The neighbor's coming over later.
