Best Answer

The Outsiders most likely takes place in August or September, as S.E. Hinton uses autumn as the season that the book is set in. Also, at one point in the book, Ponyboy says, "'I'm fourteen! I've been fourteen for a month!'" Ponyboy's birthday is July 22nd, so you would think that the book takes place in August, but the story happens while Ponyboy is in school, and most American public schools don't start until mid-to-late August or early September.
