Agreed. Perhaps more New England, but someone will have a large chunk of land (former farm often) and subdivide into house lots. This is donei with a subdivision plan that needs planning board approval (to verify setbacks, lot sizes and frontage, street layout, etc.) and that ~always has a name associated with it, and almost always, that name is then used to refer to that subdivision. I don't see that as place=neighborhood which I would use for something more organic and older, without a crisp boundary. With a subdivision plan, a property is either part of it or not, and it's very easy for anyone to look at the public records of the subdivision. These have landuse=residential with names.
