ENTENDENDO AS HORAS EM INGLÊS
Some will say that to inanimate things (as "neighborhoods") we should use "of", others will use the apostrophe.
In academical writings preferably is better to use "of"; other than that, it´s getting acceptable to use the form with the apostrophe.
One has to be careful with ambiguity, though: house´s windows would be (in spoken English) would be understood as "houses windows", perhaps that´s why they "favor" the "of" rule to inanimate things.
