The phrase 'there goes the neighborhood' has long been used as a sarcastic comment when something changes the character of a place, and as a sound clip it carries that same tongue-in-cheek meaning into short videos. Online, it is most useful as a reaction sound: creators pair it with entrances, arrivals, and disruptive moments rather than using it as background audio. Its appeal is its instant readability, since viewers usually understand the joke from the line alone. That simplicity has kept it useful for memes, reaction edits, and comedy clips where a quick judgment lands better than a long explanation.
