"Vi bor nær grænsen."

Translation: We live near the border.

Could 'we live by the border' also work here?

We live by the border would probably be "Vi bor ved grænsen" although the two mean similar things.

[GreysonBMiller]

What is a border?

Can anyone explain the difference between "ved" and "nær"?
