A pinkeye keeps his or her house and yard as unclean and unkempt as themselves. Trash, car parts, furniture and animals (often goats, chickens & ducks) fill a pinkeyes house and yard.
Because their yards are the black-eye of any neighborhood, most pinkeye's live in small clusters know as a "Pinkeye Village" (the most well-known of which is located in East Taunton, MA.)
Pinkeye does is in fact relate to the medical term pinkeye as both flourish in close quarters where there is little to no hygiene.
The term pinkeye is used almost exclusively in South-Eastern Massachusetts.
