Any mall with a different mix of stores catering to a ghetto clientele. Also a poor representation of mainstream retailers.
Mall with a lot of athletic shoe stores, urban wear, dollar stores, wig shops, stores that don't exist in other malls, stores where you can see they were once a national store such as The Gap, but something else moved in and did not remodel much and have a banner sign over the Gap sign.

When you have 2 faulty lighters, one with a working flint/spark but no gas, the other with gas but no spark. So you have to use both lighters to spark a joint in the ghetto.
Guy 1: Have you got a lighter?
Guy 2: It's a long ting, you have to use both these lighters.
Guy 1: That's cool, pass them here.
Guy 2: WOW! How you spark that splif so fast?
Guy 1: I'm a crackhead don't you think I've used a Ghetto Lighter before!
Guy 2: It's a long ting, you have to use both these lighters.
Guy 1: That's cool, pass them here.
Guy 2: WOW! How you spark that splif so fast?

A term coined by Ben Adelman in his article '5 Ridiculous Attempts at Crime Fighting that Actually Worked.' A Ghetto Pinata is a person on and in which you can find an excessive amount of drugs.
"Harry was a veritable ghetto pinata--just absolutely stuffed to bursting with his beloved crack cocaine." (Adelman, Ben)

The fine mixture of broken glass and fragmented asphalt you see in the less savory parts of a city. Its presence indicates a lack of routine street cleaning and frequent occurrences of drunks breaking bottles against the ground or brick walls. These areas are best avoided at night, especially when alone.
I took a shortcut riding my bike last night and popped my tire on some ghetto sand. I had to walk my bike the rest of the way home, I'm lucky nobody jumped me!
