Street photography is an approach to photography rather than a location, although the streets are the usual place it happens.
"When I saw the photograph of Munkacsi of the black kids running in a wave I couldn't believe such a thing could be caught with the camera. I said damn it, I took my camera and went out into the street." Henri Cartier-Bresson
Alternatively it is refered to as no rules photography. The plethera of equipment (tripods, lenses,filters,lights etc etc) associated with "serious" photography is left at home, or better still in the camera store.

Street photography is shooting from the hip.
