Saint-Michel
From Rap Dictionary
This is a largely working-poor area of Montreal, Canada, home to 55,000, of whom only 19 per cent receive welfare. The typical Saint-Michel adult earns $18,414 a year, compared to the city average of $28,258. About 30 per cent have less than a grade nine education, twice the city average. Poverty is particularly dire around Boulevard Industriel between Saint-Michel and Pie IX. It is the largest concentration of Haitian immingrents in Montreal and is home to many of its street gangs (Crack Down Posse, 67's, etc.). Saint-Michel is considered Crips territory; and home to the 67's , a set named after the 67 bus that goes through Saint-Michel.
