Analyze capitalization rules for each option in the sentence

• "east": Used as a direction here ("moved east"), so it should not be capitalized.
• "mom": Preceded by the possessive pronoun "her" ("her mom"), acting as a common noun, so it should not be capitalized.
• "neighborhood": Used as a common noun, so it should not be capitalized.
• "soho": Refers to a specific, well-known neighborhood in Lower Manhattan (SoHo), which is a proper noun and must be capitalized.

Answer:

• (C) Neighborhood
• (D) Soho (Correct answer)
