This is a lower class neighborhood with a lot of unsavory
people.
"When it's late at night you her the sound of car
doors and people talking and boom boxes spilling out the latest tunes." (pg

"The sound of broken glass can cut through other noises,
even if it's just a bottle of wine someone dropped." (pg

"..... there's always the sirens, bring their bad news
from far off and making you hold your breath until they pass so you know it ain't any of
your people who's getting arrested or being taken to the hospital." (pg
2-3)
"It's like all the shooting and chasing is over for
the night and the neighborhood is getting ready for a new day." (pg

"I'm seventeen and the streets mess with me and keep me
nervous..." (pg 5)
