Sector (4)

Ross

I think it could be either:

area

zone

'sector' is the definition.
(I've seen this in another clue)

This is all the clue.

(Other definitions for zone that I've seen before include "Area; belt" , "Designated or defined area" , "Bitter, pungent" , "Region with particular characteristics" , "District, area" .)

I've seen this clue in the Newsday, the Penny Press, The Washington Post, the USA Today and The Wall Street Journal.
