 SPANGLISH ALERT: "URBANISATION" CAN NOT BE USED IN ENGLISH Many Spanish people use the word "urbanisation" to describe where they live but a native speaker would be confused by this description. It is better to say that you live in a "block of flats" or an "apartment complex". T he word "urbanisation" in English means the "process of a rural area becoming more urban". Hope that helps!

Would you say "residential area" instead the Spanglish "urbanisation"? I am referring when one lives in areas where people live in detached/semidetached houses, usually at the outskirts of towns or cities.
