Hyperlocal

What is Hyperlocal?


1.

1) to address a location with an absurdly localdescription to the point where it is confusing to non-residents

2) to generally address a location with a description only comprehended by the speaker

See local, redundancy

Instead of saying, "I'm currently living in New York City", one would say, "I'm currently living on Washingtonstreet, near Tony's Pizzaand the Chevron Gas Station"

or

One would say, "Take a right near the McDonald's that used to be a Auto PartStore, then go ahead until you get to that nice Falafel Restaurant, then etc..." In place of, "Take a right, then go ahead 2 blocks, then etc..."

Using Hyperlocal descriptions will surely confuse other people.
