Why is it masculine?
Vecino is masculine because it derives from Latin "vicinus," which was itself a masculine adjective meaning "neighboring" or "nearby," and Spanish inherited this grammatical gender along with the word's form and meaning. The Latin root likely relates to "vicus" (village/neighborhood), and the masculine gender simply carried through the Romance language evolution without change.
