Your house, home, or crib in Mexico, the most street-level, neighborhood way to refer to where you live. Saying 'voy al cantón' sounds more authentic than saying 'I'm going home.'.
“Let's go to the cantón to watch the movie, there's beers there.”
“He stays locked up in his cantón playing video games.”
