Urban prairie
Urban prairie is a recently-coined term to describe what is forming in some North American cities as the process of urban sprawl takes hold. When people abandon the inner city to relocate to the suburbs, large swaths of buildings are torn down or neglected due to a shrinking tax base and increased crime.
