What is now known as "The Drains" are actually locations around Murales that used to provide low-cost housing. No longer is the housing low cost- it is in fact free. Whatever maintenence that is performed here is done by the residents alone. There are no landlords, NO adherences to housing safety requirements and, except in particular cases, the law turns its head entirely to these establishments. Most locations have their own set of unwritten rules, and they are different wherever you go.
They are referred to as "The Drains" in a derogatory sense; the basic meaning is fairly obvious- anything that filters down the drain winds up here.
Despite the dangerous hype surrounding these places, many find it either the only place they can afford to situate themselves, or keep here for the lawless appeal.
