A '''neighborhood''' is a community area, located on the [[Cavern]] wall.

Known neighborhoods include [[Bevin]], [[Kirel]] and [[Seret]]. They differ in their configuration, though the general layout is rather similar. Kirel is a blue, mirrored version of the Bevin style, while Seret shares the same style with Bevin but has different lamp features. Currently, Kirel and many neighborhoods patterned after Bevin are accessible to the explorers in the Cavern.

Two other neighborhoods, [[Jenahkai]] and [[Shegahdah]], are known only by name. They are not available to explorers, and nothing is known about their location or layout.

[[Elonin]] is a neighborhood discovered by Dulcamara and Ametist.

Many neighborhoods were rather well-preserved from the [[Fall of D'ni|fall]], and have been one of the first major places to become publicly accessible once more by explorers thanks to the [[DRC]]'s restoration work.

Orange mushroom-like vegetation grows on some lampposts.

== Naming confusion ==

[[Image:Hoodslamps.jpg|thumb|right|The hood lamp styles.]]

The word "Bevin" is not D'ni for "neighborhood".<ref>{{cite forum post|url=https://mystonline.com/forums/viewtopic.php?p=202403#p202403|author= Paradox|title=Neighborhood Builder|forum=Myst Online forums|date=August 31, 2007}}</ref> Explorers have, however, used it as a shorthand term for them (e.g. "the Bevins", or "so-and-so's Bevin"), and there was a period of time during the [[Third Restoration]] when the DRC did the same. For many months, all of the accessible neighborhoods were called "Bevins" in the KI interface.

Bevin is also not to be confused with [[Beginner's Bevin]], the neighborhood where [[Restoration Engineer|Restoration Engineers]] used to give orientations and provide assistance to new explorers.

More confusion has been caused by the fact that moth-style lamps, believed to distinguish Seret from Bevin, have been appearing in the latter.
