A Ratón is Mexican Culture for ghetto, or hood. Unlike hood or ghetto, Ratón is a hood of Mexicans; not blacks. You will most likely hear this word from people from Mexico, specifically their peninsula Tijuana.
Juro tú mijo es un gánster de mierda! Está creca en el Ratón? I swear your kid is a fucking gangster! Was he raised in the Ratón?

a little nuisance that is probably by definition an 1337 gamer. but if u see a Raton in real life u know that they are small scrawny boys that lack facial hair and range from ages 14-17. Might play video games and do nothing else in life. They may annoy you and when alone they are easy to take down with your fist . however in large groups Ratons can insult u feeling ashamed. beware of sociological torment.
Austin: dude i was playing halo with all these mlg players that were totally owning everyone yet they sound like faggs man. this stupid Raton!!

Tim: yeah thats because they're cocky assholes.

Austin: damn Ratons!

Small town in Colfax County, New Mexico known for high concentration of drugs and low concentration of jobs. There used to be a coal mine but it shut down and put hella people out of work. West side of town is where Main Street is at and is the better side of town. Then there’s the East side, which is mostly ghetto and full of drugs. Raton has so much potential, considering how beautiful the landscape is. This town has lovely history and culture though and I wish the best for it.
Dude 1: you ever been to Raton?
Dude 2: I’m from there, not a great place. Can definitely improve though
