Summary/Abstract: In this essay, I aim to summarize the main characteristics of the relationship structure of poor Roma families in Budapest. The generational changes in the relationship structure are illustrated by interviews and a short review of the relevant literature. In my research, I try to find the answer to the question, whether the examined segregated streets and apartment blocks– individually or collectively – can be called a community. And also if these segregated areas have a describable connection limit, if we can describe them in a geographical or social sense, or if these relationship have ethnical boundaries. I recorded my semi-structured interviews in the 8th and 9th district of Budapest in 2017. I interviewed twenty people from ages of sixteen to fifty-five. All parts of the interviews are accompanied by the related analytical and explanatory notes.
