In a general meaning, currently obsolete, an expression for every settlement unit (urban or rural one). Understood as such, it had been considered a separate locality. In urban studies, this notion is derived from a "neighbouring unit" idea, covering a group of residential buildings with a service facilities and green areas. As a part of a locality, "osiedle" may be recognised by its particular name, physiognomy (i. e. a group of blocks of flats, detached houses), topography (occupied area), and a period, when it was established. In cartography, it may be distinguished by its own name preceded by an abbreviation (i.e. Os. Zdobycz Robotnicza) as well as morphology.
