Usage Note
Residente is common gender — el residente (m) / la residente (f) — so the article signals sex. It can also function as an adjective: población residente ('resident population'). In medical contexts it means a medical resident (residente de medicina), exactly as in English.
Examples
"Los residentes del edificio firmaron la queja."
Natural Translation
The residents of the building signed the complaint.
