Person living nearby (9)

I believe the answer is:

neighbour

'person living nearby' is the definition.
(I've seen this before)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for neighbour that I've seen before include "Abut" , "Exist near" , "One living next door" , "Person who livess near another" , "man next door" .)

I've seen this clue in The Telegraph and The Independent.
