Newton – a suburb of Sydney Australia (state of New South Wales), 10 minutes outside of the CBD. Notable for a colourful bohemian population numerous off-beat boutique stores and a variety of international food outlets, a lot of them Thai. Exemplary of Sydney’s reviled Terrace House architecture it is historically a working-class suburb. The neighbouring University of Sydney provides a regular stream of student clientele. The older and more rundown parts offer comparatively cheaper rents than other inner-city suburbs although as with most of this area of Sydney it is slowly being renovated, attracting more affluent residents. Together with adjacent suburbs of Enmore, Stanmore Camperdown and St. Peters Newtown is notorious as a focus for alternative youth cultures including punk, stoner, goth, metal and hippie. Not exclusive to any of these, the main drag – King Street is renowned for a variety of pubs and clubs including “Townie” (Town Hall), Coopers Arms, The Bank and Zanzibar, to name a few.

Where do you even begin to explain this smalltown up north in the state of Connecticut?
Newtown's residents include many wealthy families, and yet many unwealthy to average families. The town has a gist of each four seasons, feeling the hot, cold, windy, stormy, rainy, snowy, or average weather. Although Sandy Hook is classified as a separate town, it is commonly included in Newtown, seeing as people from both towns attend Newtown Middle School and Newtown High School.
The teenagers in Newtown range on and off from the popular cliche cliques. Most of what happens in this town seems like it is some television show due to the amount of people that:
-smoke pot daily to on the weekends
-come out as bisexual, gay, lesbian, or not sure
-post or show pictures of nudity
-lie to their parents and/or siblings
-have sex or sexual encounters with a couple to many partners before graduating high school
-take birth control or use condoms
-end up being pregnant
-have an abortion, keep their baby, suffer miscarraige, or give their baby up for adoption
-get an std
-perform self-mutilation (cutting, burning, bruising, etc)
-end up with mental disorder (depression, anxiety, etc)
-develop eating disorders (anorexia, bulimia, overeating, etc)
-drink many times per week, most of the time just to get drunk
-end up in the hospital (for physical and/or mental reasons)
-become severely injured
-need prescription medication
-cheat on their significant other
-cheat on tests, homework, and whatnot
-steal or shoplift
-dye their hair (highlights, combination of colors, brown, blonde, black, red, green, blue, purple, pink, etc)
-end up in therapy or having to go to a special school
-become friends with many people from other towns (brookfield, hartford, shelton, danbury, redding, trumbull, etc)
-spend most to all of their free time on myspace, facebook, and/or aim
-walk throughout the town or hitch rides
-experience their parents divorce, become ill, or pass on
-become suicidal
-skip classes
-run away
-get low self esteem
-get piercings and gages (with or without parental consent; ears, belly button, eyebrows, nose, lip, tongue, facial, etc)
-get tattoos underage
-experiment smoking various things
-experiment with many types of drugs
-sell drugs
-threaten someone (accidently, jokingly, purposely, etc)
-obtain weapon (pocket knife, gun, etc)
-use weapon
-have older-aged people buy them cigarettes
-smoke cigarettes underage and become addicted by or before legal age
-become attention seeking and attempt to do something listed above
-have a similar or different problem than what is listed above
-not be one of the people with such common problems like listed above
Although it may seem that half to three fourths of a teenager's grade does many of those things, there are some good to well-rounded students that have thought about many of those various issues, known someone or many people with one or more of those various issues, made a decision not to do or be associated with any of those things, and try to do well in school.
Many middle schoolers tend to walk after school to local places like:
-big y (including the parking lot)
-dunkin donuts
-starbucks
-cvs
-andrea's bakery
-dynasty chinese food
-library
-the ice cream shop
-general store
Many hang outs for a wide range of teenagers include:
-the center (big y and the stores surrounding it)
-friend's houses
-woods and streets
-teen center (inside, outside)
-football games
-edmond town hall (inside, behind, in front)
-cars
-loews/amc theaters
-local stores
-danbury mall
It could be that in this town you will:
-meet the best friends of your life
-lose the best friends of your life
-fall in and/or out of peer pressure
-find someone that you love
-lose someone that you love
-witness some not great moments
-witness some very great moments
-laugh and cry
-learn something (whether it's from school or not)
-find out what you are passionate about
-feel let down or like you have messed up
-regain what you have lost
-reach self-discovery

town in fairfield county, ct. more than 50% catholic. while a lot of it is middle-class, there are some very, VERY rich people here. one person may have a tiny house, another may have a huge mansion. kids here go from being down to earth and friendly to completely preppy and snobby. you know who the rich kids are if they go to rock ridge, the country club in town. all of the kids here wanna go to uconn, but a lot end up going somewhere completely different. the school system is actually really good, and if you dont go to public school you most likely go to the town's catholic school. its basically an alternative for those who want their kids to go to a private school but who dont have enough money for a different one. as far as i know, there are 2 others in town, but they're only attended by the smart kids who can really afford it (newtown isnt cheap!). other than that, its home to the biggest lacrosse fanatics and the NIGHTHAWKS. the ghetto to us here in newtown is bridgeport, although danbury is known as the mini one. everyone who moves out of newtown goes to fairfield. the popular high schools are nhs, immaculate and fairfield prep. "the center" is where teenagers hang out and smoke, although apparently loitering is "strictly prohibited".
newtown is a nice place to live although some people brag about how big their houses are and how much money their daddys make, but most of them are just looking for attention. most of the people here are REALLY nice and funny. the track team is amazing and so is the new part of the high school. overall its a pretty cool place.

A small town in Conneticut that mostly contains a strange booger worshipping cult. Every Saturday 98.4% of the people in Newtown meet in the town center and pick their bloody boogers and make one big bloody booger and even sometimes models of people, objects, ect. For example the whole Seinfeld cast was formed out of bloody boogers. The booger worshiping cult is peaceful but strange. Also the town has a mostly white population and the majority of people that live in Newtown are middle class.

A ghetto area of inner-city birmingham, located in-between Aston and Lozells. It has a very large black population, in fact, you are unlikely to find a single white person who lives there. It is one of the most deprived areas in the UK.

An area of Birmingham, England. It is located in inner-city Brimingham, one mile north of the city center. It is part of the Aston ward and is situated in between Aston and Lozells. Newtown has one of the highest black populations in the UK, so there are alot of black drug gangs operating in the area. It is also one of the most deprived areas in the UK, and the majority of children growing up there are living in poverty conditions. Avoid the place at all costs unless you want to see a real ghetto.
