Our Spiritual Neighborhood is what our mind is occupied with. Not so long ago, we interacted much more with our neighbors in our physical neighborhoods. I don't doubt that their presence although not seen to often has an impact. Now with the advent of iPhones and social media, our neighbors seem to have shifted to who we are connecting with this way. There is much to be said, but I will leave it at this point. Messiach should come very soon!

What kind of Torah neighborhood? It depends on whether the neighborhood is a place of Torah in people's hearts, not just people's clothes. A true Torah neighborhood is one where Jews follow halacha, study Torah AND care about their neighbors. They do not scowl at each other, get each other's children kicked out of their schools, spit at religious jewish girls on the street or keep their neighbors awake at all hours with shiputz or blaring klezmer music. There is more to a Torah neighborhood than the outward appearances.
