Thanks Vale. Actually that "he" was a typo for "her" not for "him" - the Spanish is the "la" in "verla"..

Thanks Rosa!
I wondered if "misma" could provide that sense, but couldn't find anything indicating it could - I guess I ahould have either looke,d harder or just decided that if i wondered about it I must have had some good reason to think it might. I hope I don't forget this use of "misma" again as all of the RAE dictionary, Diccionario de español para Extranjeros, and Nuevo Diccionario Escolar de la lenguaga española (the dictionaries I most rely on for Spanish) say (if I didn't misunderstand them when I looked at them the other day) that it can be used in that sense only immediately following an adverb. Anyway, when I saw your comment I decided to look it up in Collins English-Spanish dictionary and there it was. I should have looked there as well as at the other three. Perhaps I was being a bit lazy in the looking because of the problem of using "very" to qualify a noun phrase that begins with an adhective "very high school teacher" could be interpreted as "teacher at a very high school"; if I was, that was silly, I should have been looking instead at how to get that meaning over without falling into the very+adjective trap (which is extremely simple: just qualify the noun with "self", which has the same effect following the "even" I would also use before using "very" in that sense).
I don't know why I misinterpreted "se commentan lost vecinos de".

explanation of "to": it's a typo for "too" ("too" means "also", and is convenient - easier to say - after a word ending with a vowel provided there's no risk of it being mistaken for "two" - it won't be mistaken for "to" because the vowel length is different).
