All of it.

The poor white folk around me tend to congregate in trailer parks...

Ghetto in the urban sense of the word? Or ghetto meaning just really shitty, like a trailer park?

Near me:
White urban ghetto: Vernon

Probably Kvarngärdet which is about 70% native Swedes and with lots of rental apartments and such. It's not so bad, just terribly flat and boring..

Inwood is an Irish ghetto (maybe Marble Hill too?). Hell's Kitchen used to be, but not so much any more.

My neighbourhood probably. The streets near me are filled with subsidized housing and the people in them just collect welfare, drink beer, fuck, and fight.

 

[Train]

near Detroit, both Warren and Westland come to mind, though there are lots of others.

Damn you beat me to it...

Walmart

North Tulsa. Anything north of 11th street is generally trash.
I dont respond to Craigslist ads that say North Tulsa...

Dundalk

You beat me to it.

That being said, the level of violence in the white-trashy areas of Baltimore County can't compete with the Baltimore City ghetto's murder rate. Dundalk and Essex have plenty of drugs, welfare bums & teenage baby mommas but they don't kill each other at anything like the rate that more "urban" losers do.

Vernon?!?

Let me guess, you leave near Union.

 

[SpiderWiz]

I thought it was South Boston.

 

[dank69]

Vernon?!?

Let me guess, you leave near Union.

Well more specifically, Rockville. That's as close to white urban ghetto as we get around here anyway.

Using OP definition of just 'shitty' I guess I would say Stafford Springs? Lots of backwoods areas east of the river...

I dated a girl from Dundalk two years ago, and yup...family and all were very 'hood-riffic'

Sammyville, OR. Very ghetto and creepy place.
