In "Buried Onions" by Gary Soto, the antagonist is not a single character but rather the harsh environment and circumstances of life in a low-income neighborhood in Fresno, California. The protagonist, Eddie, faces various challenges, including violence, poverty, and the influence of gang culture, which serve as the primary obstacles to his aspirations and personal growth. These societal issues create a sense of opposition that drives the narrative and shapes Eddie's struggles.
