If the person may probably have lived in several different houses in this neighborhood:
你在这一带住多久了?
你在这一片儿住多久了?(more colloquially, especially in the north)
If the person probably has lived only in one house in this neighborhood:
你在这儿住多久了?

Yes, if you assume the time is less than ten years. By the way, the word is written as 几 in simplified Chinese :)

@prochesseur how do you know is less than 10 years if you don't know the other person

@Tiki17 If you don't know whether it's more than 10 years, the best choice is 多久/多长时间, and 多少年 is acceptable too. 几 is usually used when you assume the number is less than 10, I mean in most parts of China. In some places (such as Taiwan, I think) 几 is okay for a number bigger than 10.
