EDIT: I'm not wondering about the literal translation, but the figurative meaning. You know, plain but cute chica. Not a total knockout but more the best-friend not girlfriend type? EDIT: In a comment on a post, qfreed summed it up. The girl next door could be stunning, but since you grew up with her, she is more of a friend than a romantic interest. It is hard to interpret what you mean without more context
Every modelling agency told me "we want the girl next door"

Hers is not a story heavily wrought with angry, painful and bitter musings about race and gender. Heads are to be held high and smiles fixed for the many photographs destined to make it into a growing family scrapbook filled with newspaper clippings and awards. The Basziles are ideally cast as post-segregation achievers. There are the two adorable girls, Natalie and Jennifer. Add the father, a native of rural Louisiana who leaves his sleepy boyhood roots for California, raises a family and becomes a successful business owner. He is a commanding figure whose determination to have the best and be the best for his family may be the cause of his undoing. The Basziles are traveling in mostly uncharted territory for black Americans, with only a faint idea of their destination but a determination not to veer off course on their way toward the American dream.

When I was 10 years old I got teased by the other students for having long, skinny legs. They said I looked like a boy, which made me cry, and meant I hated going to school. That was bullying, now I know — but back then I had no clue. I became insecure from that early age and found it difficult to say anything to anyone. In my teens, I continued to hate my body and struggled with poor self-esteem and body image issues.
