This paper aims at delving into the neighborhood living experiences of self-identified gay and lesbian subjects. Data was gathered from conversations and interviews, and complemented by observation in the field, located in the intermediate city of Bahí­a Blanca, to the southwest of the Buenos Aires province. The geographical perspective was enriched by semiotics and urban anthropology, within a cultural approach. Inter-neighborhood readjustments in the individual trajectories that result in the activation of certain city areas can be explained from the deconstruction of the imperatives that found the notion of neighbourhood (family, tranquility and past). Finally, this view is distanced from the city as a totalizing entity and, from the perspective of barely heard voices, seeks to open the neighborhood scale to demonstrate the conditionings woven in the transit of everyday life.
