5)Since you are being expelled from college, I will be alone in here.
6)Since most of the men being loaded on the chopper are from Charlie Company, you will have to take their place.
In #6, the subject of the dependent clause is most and the verb is are.
Since most are from Charlie Company,...
There

A neighborhood consists of the houses in the same area where you live. Neighbors are people who live in your neighborhood or in your apartment building.
These are more natural versions:
Being mad at me, the neighbors told me to move, so I'm moving from my flat.
Since the neigh
