Street Rat 

A homeless kid who lives on the streets. A rat is highly intelligent, agile, and lives off of what other throw away.

Street rats are generally on their own and feel at home anywhere in a given city. The alleys, buildings, dumpsters are their domain.

Not to be confused with Hood Rat, rat fink, rat pack, or a group of homeless kids generally defined as a wolf pack.
That kid looks hungry, we should bring out our left overs after we leave, he is a street rat after all.

Hence the name of the main real life character in the homeless youth documentary "street wise".

Also referenced to in the song by hardcore band Sick of it all - "Rat Pack" or the crust band the Virus with the song "Rats in the City"

Wall Street Rat 

Similar in tone to hood rat or street rat the WSR is an sub-species indigenous to the greater NYC area, sometimes including Greenwich, CT. While seemingly disguised in a suit and tie this shady character is constantly plotting nefarious schemes such as parceling up bad product with enough good product to fool buyers (similar to drug dealing), insider lingo meant to confuse and distract listeners and giving themselves pay raises as everyone else suffers (stealing). They should be treated with the same contempt as other aforementioned rats.
I hate going out drinking in the Financial District. The bars are always full of stinking Wall Street Rats.
