Sometimes subdivisions map cleanly to neighborhoods. But not always. In the USA aspirational neighborhoods are common, if not the rule. As a neighborhood gets trendy more and more people at the edges (and more and more Realtors) latch on to that name. The Zillow data is a very rigid idea of what a neighborhood is. Walk three blocks away from "Noe Valley" and ask what neighborhood you are in, and you're likely to get four answers. Capturing that diversity would produce a far more useful neighborhood guide than just importing Zillow.
