What is the setting of The Poet X by Elizabeth Acevedo?

Elizabeth Acevedo’s novel is set in Harlem, a neighborhood in the northern part of Manhattan in New York, New York, in the United States. This is a highly diverse neighborhood racially and ethnically, with large populations of African-American and Latino people; among the latter, people of Dominican and Puerto Rican heritage are especially well represented. Xiomara Batista’s family is Dominican; not only are they poor, but her immediate neighborhood suffers the negative effects of poverty and social neglect; however, it also has a vibrant cultural life, such as youths playing basketball. There is also drug dealing and considerable violence on the streets; Xiomara has had to defend herself physically and show that she is willing to do so. Her mother, wanting to prevent her from both getting involved in the violence and possible sexual activity, criticizes her for talking to boys on the stoop.
