Wasn't sure if this should go with an actual neighborhood, but since it's in the examples, here's Kamabakka Kingdom, the land of transvestites, in One Piece, manga and anime (you'll need to directly input this one since TV Tropes is confused by quotations in UR Ls [[http://onepiece.wikia.com/wiki/File:Sanji's_%22Resisting_in_Kamabakka%22_Anime_Finale.PNG]])

It's so washed out and pink I can't even tell what if anything is going on.

Then that's what the manga one is for.

I can tell what's going on in the anime one a lot better than the manga version. It's not bad but I'd like to see some other options.

I'm not familiar with the manga/anime, but that pic looks like a crude and stereotypical, downright offensive caricature of transgendered people. It may be an example of the trope, but I think the page should have a more neutral image. Also, I don't see the "neighbourhood" part of the trope in the pic, the characters appear to be running on an open field or something?

That was my major gripe as well...plenty of apparent gay, but not a lot of community.

Yeah, I'm not a huge fan of either of those, for reasons noted above.

[tdown] It even fails on a technical level because I cannot see the "neighborhood" in any of those images.

Out of the suggestions, Philadelphia #2 takes it for me.

The OP is just unpleasing to the eye in general. [tdown]

Pretty much anything from 10.2 on works for me.

Either the sign in 10 or 10.2 works for me.

Think 10.4 is good.

Another idea is to pun on Gayborhood and have a picture of the Village People: [1]

Time to call this one; can someone please put up the winner? Thanks in advance.

Caption or no? "Live the rainbow!" came to mind but I'd be fine with none.
