Interesting question, here's a post about Zillow's neighborhood database:

Alternatively, outside.in also defines neighborhoods and displays them
using google maps.

Is there a free database of American neighborhood names and polygonal
boundaries.
To elaborate:
For example San Francisco has neighborhoods like 'SOMA' or 'chinatown'
or 'mission'.
My current need is a neighborhood database for Seattle, of which one
appears here:
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seattle_neighborhoods
It seems like there may be data behind this - I am about to check if
this is just from some publically available census data like census
2000.
Also,
http://clerk.ci.seattle.wa.us/~public/nmaps/fullcit2.htm
And
http://transit.metrokc.gov/tops/bus/neighborhoods/region_text.html
But generally speaking is there something comprehensive for the entire
United States?
