ghettorific

A word used to describe something that is located out of the ghetto but you would expect to see there.

From a combination of the adjective "ghetto" -- meaning "having a decayed urban look" -- and the adjective "terrific" -- meaning "fine, great, or splendid".

After Bruce finished repainting his Mustang with left-over cans of various colors of spray paint, his vehicle looked decided ghettorific.

Ghettofication

The opposite of "gentrification." Disinvestment and the creation of deteriorated property caused by lower-income people slowly taking over and moving in to middle-class neighborhoods resulting in the flight of the former wealthier inhabitants.

In Detroit, a large proportion of ghettofied housing was originally built for middle and upper income occupants. As the process of ghettofication occurred this housing was increasingly occupied by lower income people. The ensuing disinvestment caused a spiral of decline in this former neighborhood of gentry as mansions were subdivided into several apartments with impoverished tenants. As ghettofication increased the houses were not maintained and blight engulfed the neighborhood.

Ghettofication

The opposite of "gentrification." It is the bombardment of lower classes slowly taking over and moving in to middle-class and affluent neighborhoods.

The temporary work agency located in the slums of town is recruting work for the jobs at my workplace in the more affluent side of town, causing a ghettofication of our workplace.

ghettoridiculous

Any behavior generally described as ghetto. Especially when these things are done in a place where civil behavior is generally expected. Such as talking like you didn't make it past second grade, talking as loud and as obnoxious as possible, slapping and threatening your 1 & 1/2 year old kid, playing loud unintelligible banging music while driving down the street, beating people up and/or shooting them for the slightest reason. Beating up your sister for sleeping with your baby's daddy that just happens to be married to your cousin. Basically behaving like slaves gone wild and calling it "acting black".

Two examples of things which are Ghettoridiculous

In a grocery store: (loud as you can)Shanikwa, you betta sit yo ass in that cart fo i beat yo mutha f**kin ass!!

On the street: BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM BOOM
