N. A state of being high.
Etymology:
Possibly originated in Wiz Khalifa's rap song titled "Car Service," but may have existed prior to that. The same thing as cloud city.

Example.
1.Heather: You guys got any wood?
Jiffy: Yeah, I got some fake.
Paul: Word, let's roll up and visit Paint City, bitches.
2. Wiz Khalifa: I'm rolling up another one, staring out this window. You're telling me to change how I'm living but it's all I know. I seen the Paint City on my way up to another one. You'll find me anywhere that paper goes. - "Car Service"

Oregon City is mostly white kids in suburbs or nice condos, however the high school consists of not only the city, but the surrounding more rural and “less fortunate” areas. People may call it the school with the “most poverty” in the area, but that’s because they’re most likely from the surrounding mega-rich/extremely wealthy areas. (Area schools include: Lake Oswego High School, Lakeridge High School, West Linn High School, and Clackamas High School.) This school is very far from the poverty line in the grand scheme of things and majority of the students.
The school is terrible though. They sweep student problems, (mental health, abuse, sexual assault), under the rug. There was a scandal in 2022 over a student committing heinous acts to another student and giving him a platform to speak on it to the entire school claiming he had “grown.” This caused several massive protests in school grounds and staff refused, for the most part, did nothing and didn’t recognize their wrongs. There were multiple teachers who publicly stood with the students, but administration was actively trying to fight back against it. The principal resigned after this whole fiasco.
It claims great academic success. It can only “show good marks” because any time a student seems to be dragging down the stats they cart them off to one of the alternative schools.

when someone is smoking and you don't want them to get caught, you tell people not to go over to the area the person is smoking, because they will cause panic at the city.
rebecca: hey i need to grab something downstairs
brinn: no you can't your gonna cause panic! @ the city

Rav City is a place where you go when you feel extremely angry. Ready for a fight. You’ve got to that point similar to being ravenous where you are just living off instincts to be survival of the fittest.

Fairmount City
The shear mention of this shithole is enough to make a new born baby cry, if not from its ghastly appearance, then from its ungodly smell. The people who live there fit into to 3 categories. Rednecks, Christians Rednecks, or the atheist who lives across from Church. However it is conveniently located next to Redneck Valley High School. A great place for your kids to learn, ya know, as long as they grew up there. Otherwise youll either be riduculed into suicide or moving to a new state, but not before someone impregnates your daughter in the bathroom by the football field. If at all possible avoid this place. Its fuckin terrible. If you comin through role up the windows and lock the doors And dont you dare stop at the near by burger king, you will get diabetes just from lookimg at half the staff and patrons.

How about a song instead of a sentence. Read to the tune of "Paradise City" By Guns N Roses
