    Solution

    The word "impoverish" is incorrect here. The correct adjective form is "impoverished," meaning poor or lacking in resources. "Impoverish" is a verb, not an adjective, and therefore does not fit in this context. Corrected sentence: "He was born and grew up in an impoverished society that pushed him into crime even before he was a teenager."
