rancho
Modest southwestern spread
A rancho is a ranch or rural settlement, particularly in the American Southwest and Latin America.
The term appears in place names throughout California and the borderlands, echoing Spanish colonial land grants: Rancho Cucamonga, Rancho Santa Fe.
In casual use, it can simply mean a small farm or country dwelling.
