__<span style="color: #ff4800; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">Favelas __

<span style="color: #ff4800; font-family: 'Arial Black',Gadget,sans-serif;">Favelas are where poor people who work in the city live. They are old shacks that people have just plonked there when they find a space. They are made of things that they have found here, there and everywhere. They are very hunhygenic and there are poen sewers,strems and rotten and full of rubbish also the open sewers overflow and make the epaths into muddy sewers. Not many children finish school and work or beg instead. There are also a lot of diesiese and drugs also lots of violence and crime. People that live in Favelas don't have any electricity so they join up with the nearest telegraph pole so there are thousands of wires attched to one pole!!! The biggest favela is Rochinia.
