propinquity

propinquity

(n)

(pruh-ping-kwuh-tee)

"nearness in position, proximity"
"close kinship"
"similarity"

I found this word when I was looking in the dictionary for propitious

I have noticed that there are a tremendous amount of words starting with "p" that I don't use.

Thanks to the propinquity of a buzzing restaurant strip to the hospital, my sister and I enjoyed a delicious meal without having to venture too far tonight.

I like this one for a change from proximity.
