A place in new orleans. Mostly heard of in local rap music, some wards uptown are 3, 13, 17 etc. The streets aren't the safest place to be because the streets are riddled with violence and drug dealing.

Uptown refers to above 86 street but more above 96 street on the West side of Manhattan mainly from amsterdam avenue streets to about morning side park to the east and 125 to the North which becomes Harlem.

Kurious Jorge, a half Cuban, half Boricua mc from Manhattan Valley, the small Latin ghetto sandwhiched between Central Park and Upper West side. He first came out with some local NY hits like "Uptown Sh*t"

the area where the kids of wildwood, edgebrook, and other northwest neighborhoods hang out. these kids are social-climbers.

social-climber: a person who finds the need to hang out with a person of higher social status than you, until they are at the top of the pyramid.

average day uptown:

going to a restaurant, and then walking around in a field of grass for 3+ hours taking pictures with people you barely know to make yourself feel better about yourself. these pics are then posted on Instagram, and get sometimes over 200 likes. these girls usually buy their followers.

typical winter apparel (female) :
1. hoodie from Victoria's Secret "Pink" or a high-school hoodie, preferably a high school for boys, because THAT makes sense.
2. leggings
3. sparkly ugg boots
they also have to have their hair straightened and loads of makeup, because fuck originality, right?

typical summer apparel (female) :
1. crop top that could fit your 2-year-old cousin named Lucy
2. denim shorts that are at least 2 sizes too small.

or sometimes girls like to wear spandex shorts because....."THOTEST IS HOTTEST!!" (i just came up with that ahahaha)

oh and for guys they wear either khaki or basketball shorts, even when it's 20 degrees out.

girls and boys ALWAYS need their Nike Elite Socks and Sperry's.
