Street kids represent a recent and growing social-urban problem in Nicaragua. Geography can contribuye to solve social pathologies with the socio-spatial analysis. From this perspective, the article contains a definition of the phenomenon, an analysis of the causes, and a vulnerability profile, describing the problematic they face as a group. The paper is completed with a depiction of the use the street kids in Managua make of the urban space.
