"Parish priest" is a job.
Catholic priests are assigned a parish by the bishop of the diocese.
Parish priests are appointed by a bishop and supported by the local parish of the priest.
.Catholic AnswerOfficially, there is no real term "parish Priest" but it is usually used to designate a priest that works in a parish as opposed to a priest in a monastery, or teaching school, or a missionary, etc. There are dozens of jobs that a priest could be doing, and working in the parish is just one of them. Most "parish priests" are diocesan priests, in other words they are attached to the local bishop and do not belong to a religious order, although there are some Order priests doing parish work.

They usually live in the parish house or rectory.
Priests sleep in a regular bed, usually in a house set aside as the rectory. The term rectory comes from the fact that all parish priests used to be called the rector of the parish.

In a parish church it would be a vicar which is the ordinary title given to certain parish priests.

Diocesan priests do not take a vow of poverty. Thus, he can be named in a will and money will go to him and not the parish. You should double check to make sure. Other type priests and nuns take a vow of poverty and money would lileky go to parish or convent.
