There's not specifically child abuse, but an adult/college-aged child gets into two verbal fights/arguments with her father.

Nearly all of the characters show a dependence on coffee. One character says “you got everyone addicted to your coffee” to a corner store owner.

No, but there is a scene where characters defy gravity and dance up the side of an apartment building, which may be uncomfortable for those with acrophobia.

No bones are actually broken, but the choreography of 96,000 involves body contortion where arms bend at unnatural angles, not super graphic but probably worth mentioning!

Not a physical parent, but someone who is an "in loco parentis" "grandmother" to many of the young people in the neighborhood, does die. This is an important plot point.

'In The Heights' is generally fairly neutral (leaning slightly towards being against) towards cops.

There's not a hospital scene, but there's a brief-but-intense scene of both audio and visual of ambulances & paramedics.

In the club scene, there is a brief, but possibly quite upsetting scene of a lot of people crowded together, attempting to all leave the building at once.

In one scene, a supporting character refers to two queer characters as 'freaks'. Though possibly hard to tell at first, this is *NOT* in reference to their queerness, and is instead due to the fact that they want to continue living in New York City.

There is a throwaway joke/line of dialogue about not wanting someone to get hit by a car, as well as a mention of a bus wreck in the second song, 'Benny's Dispatch', but no onscreen car crashes.
