urban prairie

A vacant lot in a city that has been neglected for some time, thus having grown weeds and other assorted vegetation. Usually found in not-very-nice or ghetto neighborhoods populated with abandoned houses.

I liked the apartment, but I'm not sure I should take it - that neighborhood has an awful lot of urban prairie.

locoholic

Similar to locovore, a locoholic is someone who buys and drinks locally-made beer exclusively.

I used to drink Sam Adams or Stella Artois at home, but now I'm a locoholic - I only buy Philadelphia Brewing Company beer.
