residential block
Group of homes
A residential block is a section of a city or town bounded by streets, consisting primarily of housing rather than commercial or industrial buildings.
The term emphasizes the domestic character of the area: The fire spread through three residential blocks before firefighters contained it.
In some contexts, it refers to a single large apartment building: a residential block of flats.
