    Hi ReadTheIron ,

    According to your description, You want to create a column based on the [Street] field to complete the [Neighborhood] field. Right?

    Here are the steps you can follow：

    (1)This is my test data:

    (2)We can create a calculated column : “FullNeighborhood”

    FullNeighborhood =
var _street='Table'[Street]
var _fullnei=MAXX( FILTER('Table','Table'[Street]=_street), [Neighborhood])
return
    _fullnei

    The other way is :

    FullNeighborhood2 = var _cuurent_street='Table'[Street]
var _table=SELECTCOLUMNS( FILTER('Table','Table'[Street]=_cuurent_street) , "Neighborhood" ,[Neighborhood])
var _first_non=LASTNONBLANK(_table,[Neighborhood])
return
_first_non

    (3)The result is as follows:

    If this method can't meet your requirement, can you provide some special input and output examples? Or a sample pbix after removing sensitive data. We can better understand the problem and help you.
