It took place in the year of 1966 in Tulsa, Oklahoma.

The book was published in early 1967, and the fictional events in the book took place just before that, as the author herself wrote the book while in high-school, watching the kind of thing that happen in The Outsiders take place all around her.

it takes place in Tulsa Oklahoma the greasers live on the east side and the socs live on the west side

***

The novel took place in the year 1963. SE Hinton was 15 when she started writing it. She found out two and a half years later when she was graduating that she would be published. and it was published about a year and half later while she was in college. In the movie adaption of the book, released in 1983, SE Hinton was the consultant on the film, and she and the director, Francis Ford Coppola made sure the year was evident. On the marquee of the theater Pony is leaving at the beginning of the complete novel DVD are two films both released in 1963 - the hustler, and gidget goes to rome. At the drive in, again, the movies on the marquee are from 1963. - - Why is this fact important, you may ask... it is because that year was the ending of innocence, after that year there were drug problems (as evident in SE Hintons follow up book That was Then This Is Now) then there was Vietnam... all things that changed the American Youth... 1963 was the ending of a chapter in American history...
