1. 1. A person (usually a female) who exhibits a trashy or triflin demeanor. Their appearance and hygiene is usually unkempt and they are very promiscuous and often don’t use protected sex. They can be aggresive and are usually found in the “ghetto” (a car wash or park) or other poor environments (usually on the front porch) being unproductive to society living off Gov. aid. These type people are content with how they live and enjoy getting high and drunk on a regular bases. A female hood rat will be dressed wearing: store brought, colored, contact lenses, house shoes or flip flops; a nappy, blond or red weave; tasteless, faded and cut-up short shorts, a revealing top or jersey dress, and plastered with tattoos of baby daddies. A male hood rat will be dressed wearing: a funk that will knock your socks off; an Xtra long white dirty t-shirt big enough to cover a bed mattress; big heavy duty boots or 100 dollar tennis shoes (he probably spent his entire check to buy) and a plaque infested gold grill. Not all black people act like that, neither do people who live in impoverished environments! Some of them want out!
1. Did you see Shaniqua at the park yesterday girl? Umm hmm, she looked a hot mess dancing in front of all those guys with that skirt on with no panties in the middle of winter, a hood rat!

2. Dude, Dexter smelt so bad in the club the other night, high as hell, jumping around with that t-shirt on covered in ketchup stains trying to fight everybody who walked through the door. He a hood rat; you couldn’t pour class on his big lipped ass.

Mostly used towards females that live in the hood and love it. They will probably live in the hood forever, don't wanna leave & probably have never left the hood. If you come across one, they will know where to find anything in the hood- drugs, candy lady, the lady that sells clothes, and they know everyone's business. Not all hood rats are dirty, they pay very low rent or live with a parent or family member so they can afford to "stay fresh". Most of them are freaks, have slept with all the neighborhood guys, all it take is a blunt or a bottle/cup of liquor, but if this particular one is ugly, all it takes is a few words.
Hey, go ask that hood rat who the police was looking for yesterday

Spiritual cannibal; Conscious zombie with an unyielding appetite, not for brains, but human decency. Commonly used to describe a scandalously pernicious female, mentally imprisoned to a 10-block radius.
That hood rat screws everyone in the neighborhood and lies more out of instinct than shame
