How to use "Inner city" in context?
Inner city is a term used to describe the areas of a city that are generally considered to be poorer and populated by a more marginalized population. In many cases, these areas are typically located near the outskirts of a city, often near transportation hubs and other areas that offer little in the way of opportunities.
As a result, inner city residents typically face a number of challenges that are not typically faced by those who live in more affluent areas of a city. To begin with, there is a greater likelihood that these residents will be unable to afford to live in some of the more desirable areas of a city.
