A frase é: as ruas da periferia são estreitas e há muita distância entre dois pontos.
O que achei é periphery, outskirts e suburbs, mas seria mais um . Será que tem outro termo melhor em inglês?

working-class suburbs
Entendo que aqui "periferia" significa onde moram os pobres. Não é somente um "suburb" no estilo dos EUA.

Obrigado. Sim, poderia. Só que eu entendo que aqui o autor se refira aos bairros pobres e distantes das metrópoles do Brasil.

suburbs
Depende do texto. É um texto brasileiro? Ou a "periferia" no contexto norte-americano? Parece que você está falando aqui de "suburbs".
I would say the "streets in the suburbs" or "suburban streets".
Se você puder dar mais detalhes, ajudaria.

(urban) periphery
In a scientific context (urban planning, architecture, sociology, geography...) the term (urban periphery) is mostly used.

That should be (urban) periphery in the explanation.

Low-income suburbs
The periferia as we all know are the outskirts of a city. We can use the word suburbs. However, to just say that it relates to working-class suburbs understates the actual reality in the Brazilian context.
Working class to me includes the middle class. Generally, those who live in the perifieria are low income residents. The periferia generally refers to poor communities in the outskirts of a city. Thus, I would use low-income suburbs.
