Where are the Socs from?

Where are the Socs from?

• A. The West Side
• B. The East Side
• C. The North Side
• D. The South Side

Answer: (A)

In the story, the social divide is tied to where characters live in town. The Socs are identified as coming from the West Side, a wealthier area that sets them apart from the Greasers, who live on the East Side. This West Side origin helps explain their sense of privilege and the tensions with the Greasers, shaping many interactions and conflicts in the narrative. The other directions aren’t the neighborhoods used to describe the Socs in the book, and the North/South distinctions aren’t the focus of the division.
