sídlisko

sídlisko is a Slovak term and it mainly means housing estate or housing project. This term has a ghetto-like feeling to it in Slovakia, but housing projects in Slovakia are way different than projects in the US. These housing projects generally don't have notorious history, and they're usually mixed in social classes, but they're still considered to be 'the hood', especially by the younger people. a lot of rappers from Slovakia come from a sídlisko, and they usually had harder life, but not everybody living in a sídlisko has hard life, in fact, a lot of people in is such a place are living great lives, everything depends on one's living situation
