What is Kensington?
1.
A very fucked up area on the east side of North Philly which is known as the Badlands. Mostly home to Black, Purto Rican, and Irish people. This neighborhood is jam packed with Heroin and Crack. People who live there are incredible fighters and can fuck you up. At night time there is crack heads, pushers, thugz,and mad gun shots. Police need to have 2 cops in the car when driving through it or they will be pulled out and fucked up.
some kid from chestnuthill got off the bus in Kensington and was beated, stabbed and robbed.

One of the many wealthy towns in MoCo. Yet unlike in Potomac, K-Towners don't flaunt what they have and instead live in a nice, cute, family town. While most of it is nice, there is the area that should be Wheaton.
Do you live in the nice part of KTown or the Wheaton part between Conn. Ave. and University Blvd?

A long ass road in philly. if you turn on to kensington, turn right the fuck back off. the stop lights have been rigged so that you will hit EVERY red light; thus provided that every stop has a 95% PROBABILITY of loosing your car. if you make it from the begining to the end... its probably the winter time and too cold for the gang baggers to jack your shit.
yo man i got off the betsy ross bridge last night and wound up on kensington. i never saw no shit like that before in my life. homies shootin craps, pit bull fights. and of course a crew of about 8 brothas on every fucking corner with a 40 of colt 45 in their back pocket.

A small place, known as a town, right outside bethesda. it includes a "skate park," one good restraunt (you know which one im talking about), and the cheapest gas for miles. It is a hassle to get to anywhere important from kensington because it is so small. also known as: "k-town" "right outside DC" and "where?"
Cheap Rich Boy with the mercedes: yo i need gas, but its so expensive!
Ktown Boy: Lets go to Kensington! its only $2.34 there!

A very weird community in Brooklyn, has many ethnical backrounds ranging from Italians, Russians, Jews, Muslims, Irish, Albanians and others. Everyone always seems busy in this area and it's usually all overpriced victorian houses. Kids all know each other but never really socialize and bring kids from other neighborhoods over. Very weird place but home to only two types of kids : extremely smart or extremely dumb. The smart kids usually go to Stuy, Brooklyn Tech, Midwood and other well rep'd school meanwhile the other kids go to F.D.R, Erasmus or some really fuked up school. The nerds usually never go out or are major pot heads/drunks who chill in other neighborhoods, the other kids usually hang around the corner. Adults have different jobs ranging from doctors, public health directors to taxi cab drivers. If you live around or in Ocean Parkway your used to the noises the russians make when its 2 am and they're drunk as hell
Billy: I live in Kensington
Bob: Oh that deserted place?

An area of Calgary where all of the indie kids go to shows, drink coffee, and mingle. You usually see the same people there everytime, in the house, sipping on their jones sodas and either listening to the arcade fire on their ipods or watching an open-mic act.
Indie kid 1: There's an open-mic today down in kensington.
Indie kid 2: Oh really? I will wear my vest that I got from salvation army. emily haines has the same one.
Indie kid 1: ooooooo.
