A cluster of small homes arranged around a shared central courtyard in Mexico, where multiple families live together and everyone knows each other's business. Think El Chavo del 8: neighbors who borrow everything, argue loudly, and somehow always look out for each other. A piece of traditional Mexican urban life that still exists in many city centers.
