Neighborville
Game	Plants vs. Zombies 3
Number of levels	20
New plants
New zombies

Neighborville was the first location in the post-2020 version of Plants vs. Zombies 3. Battles took place on the player’s front yard. The location functioned as a tutorial area to showcase boosts and multiple plants. It consisted of 20 levels in total in the April 2022 release and 26 levels in the September 2021 beta.

Gimmick

Unlike previous incarnations of unsodded tiles where they’re only found in tutorial levels, here they functioned as Neighborville’s gimmick. Unsodded tiles couldn’t have plants planted on them. They appeared in different spots throughout each level.

Surprise Attack

Neighborville had no surprise attack, unlike the other locations in the game. This was likely due to it being the first location and serving as a tutorial.
