First coined
The term skid or skid road is used to refer to a run-down or dilapidated urban area.
There are formally recognized neighborhoods named Skid Row in Seattle and Los Angeles.
Informally, there is an identified skid-row neighborhood in almost every major North American city, such as the Bowery in NY and the Downtown Eastside in Vancouver, which like Seattle's, was one of the original locations where the term was first coined.
