Nuestros vecinos tienen una densidad de población cada vez mayor y cada vez están más cerca de nuestro umbral. Our neighbourhood is becoming even more densely populated and is closer to our doorstep. En el umbral de nuestra puerta, al otro lado del Mediterráneo, ha comenzado a soplar un viento de libertad. On our doorstep, on the other side of the Mediterranean, a wind of freedom has started to blow.

An outside step leading up to the door of a building, usually a home
One's immediate neighbourhood or locality
A big slice, especially of bread
To visit one household after another to solicit sales, charitable donations, political support, etc

On ones doorstep
They want to build the prison right on our doorstep; it will only be half a mile away and being that close scares me
