The Valley:
A place where it is impossible to go anywhere without running
into someone you know. The girls are the sluttiest. Make one
phone call, and you can have any drug within ten minutes. The
drinking age is fifteen. Parties every weekend. No such thing as relationships. Everyone is in a gang or a crew. Trends come fast, and go even faster. Most importantly, it's what I call home.

depending on where you go, you can find a
run-down shack with 11 hispanic kids living alone, right next to a
gated mansion worth $3 million. every night someone is running from the cops,
being followed by a helicopter. ambulances are constantly blaring, and if you listen carefully, you can hear gunshots in the distance. and even though its so dangerous to live here, houses are expensive as all hell. one never knows what to expect when you live around here.

a quaint suburban sort of place, the valley is thought to be tacky and boring by the snobs who live
over the hill, but those of us who live here know there's more to life than spending
daddy's money on drugs and
designer jeans. we take complete credit for the extreme usage of the word "like" that seems to have overrun the teen nation.

Someone from a non-coastal city, such as San Jose, but likes to visit the nearby coastal city, such as Santa Cruz. They are hated severely by the locals, and we all wish they would
just go away and stop
crowding our beaches. When driving by the beach during summer or weekends, the phrase "fuckin
valleys" can be heard frequently.
