Kith - 1. acquaintances, friends, neighbors, or the like; persons living in the same general locality and forming a more or less cohesive group.

The concept of kith-hood strikes me as being a tacit aspect of any scene were you would be making introductions. Also, kith-hood has no formal categories or bounds, where kinship has a distinct array of categories which make it categorically disprovable, unlike kithhood. Kithship?
