Eurotrash (term)
"Eurotrash" is a term for certain Europeans, particularly those perceived to be socialites, stylish, affluent, and/or effete. Eurotrash is often used as a collective term for such European migrants in the United States or other areas with a concentration of wealthy Europeans.

Trailer Trash
''Trailer trash'' is a derogatory North American English term for poverty, poor people living in a travel trailer, trailer or a run-down mobile home in a bad neighborhood. It is particularly used to denigrate white people living in such circumstances. History In the mid-20th century, poor whites who could not afford to buy suburban-style tract housing began to purchase mobile homes, which were not only cheaper but could be easily relocated if work in one location ran out. These – sometimes by choice and sometimes through local zoning laws – gathered in trailer parks, and the people who lived in them became known as "trailer trash" with the term dating to at least 1952.Harold H. Martin, “Don't Call Them Trailer Trash,” The Saturday Evening Post, August 2, 1952, Vol. 225, No. 5.
