Favela

"Favela" or "periferia", translated as "ghetto" in English, also known as Moni's homeplace, is a deprived area or poor neighborhood on the outskirts of a town consisting of large numbers of crude dwellings. The dwellers or residents of a favela are called "favelados".
Beginning as illegal settlements, favelas still often lack the most basic kinds of infrastructure such as paved roads, enclosed houses, and reliable electricity. The endless favelas in the major cities are a daily reminder to Brazilians of the tremendous social ills that plague their country. Many areas in the world, from favelas to urban ghettos, are becoming areas where law enforcement officials have little, if any, authority.
