neighborhood streets
Residential area thoroughfares
Neighborhood streets are the local roads in a residential area, typically quieter and narrower than main thoroughfares.
The phrase evokes the familiar routes near home—where children play, neighbors walk dogs, and traffic moves slowly: I learned to ride a bike on the neighborhood streets.
Often used in contexts of community safety or local character.
