Which gang from los angeles lives in the richest neighbourhood compared to other gangs ????

ALL WEST L.A GANGS AND I WOULD SAY GRAVE YARD CRIPS AND SANTA MONICA 18 ST

Is Graveyard tagging "SMC" around the beach? There's a lot of that around.

Grave yards dont move nuttin they will fight at the most. they got white boys from the hood. them niggas try to be down where they hat str8 back lol

Graveyard what city they from? What do u mean they dont move nothin like narcotics husslin?

Actually nm, I found out theyre from Santa Monica. Funny considering I'm too poor to live there (My mom was looking for cheapest apartment there and I ended up moving to Pasadena).

they're from the East side of Santa Monica near the 405, not like they're living in beach condos

lol that would be some funny shet if they were. Speaking of which is there any upper class gangs?

See the current issue of City Beat for a good article on West Side gangs

where can one pick up City Beat?

Alonso,
You can pick up the City Beat anywhere west of the 405fwy, any liquor store or record store. Hmmm, I'm surprised you don't have a copy since you were interviewed for it??? Your in the article, along with Luis Rodriguez. Also check the other article regarding Juveniles in Central Jail. They want to get the kids out of central mens and place them in a juvenile facility.

Anyways the main story to the article was that Westside Chicano Varrios are shrinking. Not by strict policing, community involvement, or prison bids...rising real estate prices have pushed out many cholos to less expensive areas. Most 1 bedroom homes in the Westside start at about $500,000 and inch up to the millions. They interviewed reps from Venice13, Culver City Boys, Sotel13. What used to be active varrios are now not so active, since many members have moved out the neighborhoods and white yuppies have snatched up all the real estate. The cats they interviewed were sad to see their community change. A gangsters worst enemy when pride sets in and no one is giving you your respect. Things were different back in the day, and those areas weren't as expensive as they are today.

arent the jungles near a rich area?

Yeah bro let's not get it too twisted now. Just because your near or in a "rich" area doesn't mean you got cheese. You can say the same for some of those overhill 60's and the rest of the cats whose hood is at the bottom of Baldwin/Windsor. And remember, gentrification is in effect. What once was the poor area, which was the westside and many other coastal communities were deemed the ghetto, real estate values were depreciated. Jews lived in EastLos, tons of white folks lived in South Central, SELA's, and other areas which are now considered "ghetto". After whites started moving out west, real estate values went up from that point on for WEST LA. And with today's economy, huge demand for houses but little or no housing available drives the prices up drastically. There are a lot of grandparents out there who own homes in "rich" areas, just because they bought it dirt cheap back in the day and haven't sold out to some rich cat. It's how you have a MFGC, a PBGC, VSLC, V13, S13 in these pricier areas. Remember before, these areas weren't as pricey as they are today. And just because some of these cats might live in these neighborhoods, it does not mean they are rich...depends if they are owning or renting the place they stay at.

why were white folk moving out? because of gang pressure? I thought some still live there. Speaking of ghetto whites is Riverside their town in La area?

I have been looking for information on Grave Yard Crips of SM, and i couldnt find nothing. Alonso you say their turf is north of SMCollege, is it in 20,21,... Streets ? or on the other side of Pico boulevard? How many members could GYC have ? Only occur 9 homicides per year in last 5 years. Are Playboy Gangster Crips similar ?

I've heard there are 18th in Rancho Park and Cheviot Hills, if that's true then I'd say that's the most affluent area with gang activity. GYC and SM17th are in the Pico Neighborhood section of SM. It's a poorer area, far from beach and far south of Montana Ave.

If you're talking about living NEAR a rich area then the answer's easy - PBG Crip. Their hood's right next to the Beverly Hills city limits.

THE NHP'S IN INGLEWOOD HAVE A SECTION OF THERE HOOD THAT HAS A LARE PROPERTY VALUE

graveyards runnin 19st, they all up on 19st north of pico to about olympic, they got a few cats on 14st.

Most the gangs in this mid city area dont live in rich hoods, its just the property value been goin up around in areas in the mid city/west la area, we still be posted over here payin nothin for rent but the whites movin in kickin all the blacks out puttin the prices up, you cant even get no house on 17st or on la brea and washington for less then 1g a month. But most the blacks around here payin nothin cuz they been around here so long and shit.
I would have to say out of all the hoods mansfields and playboys livin in the hoods with the nicest bigest houses and shit. 2 story shits

For Los Angeles city, not county? Hmm...some on Mansfields hood is pretty nice. Most of 20s isn't, but if you go like one block west of Crenshaw, off of Adams I think, it's a nice neighborhood over there that you can't even get to from the south of it. But I don't think it's really anybody bangin who lives there...it's pretty high middle class, I think it's on Victoria? My cousin lives there as well as a lot of my parents friends.

Yeah, where Overhills are, I suppose they are in the nice houses over there too. I heaard it's some crip gang in View Park but I just laugh at the thought of it if it's true.

For Inglewood, NHP's neighborhood is nice, as well as some parts of Family's hood is relatively well off.

I think Carson has some of the richest black neighborhoods...I've heard people say it's the richest black city in America, I donno how true it is though. But Centerview's "hood" looks extremely nice and I know most of those who own the houses are doin well. And does anybody know if the ECCs or 190s are in Unversity Heights? My homeboy lives there, he says it's some gang or gangs there but it is VEEERY nice there.

As many people on here say, just because a neighborhood is rich or nice doesn't mean it's all good. But in my opinion, it just looks funny to see dudes bangin in front of nice houses, and especially when dudes bang and their parents don't even know it, and always preach to them "I don't want you joining a gang" after they've been in one for some years.

University Heights? Isn't that where Stephenson Park is? But in my opinion, if something's nice, it has to have high property value, nice houses, and no gangs/graffiti. I heard some houses in the Keystones' hood are pretty expensive, but the Centerview Piru's "hood" is very nice and it cracks me up laughing when I picture them banging there. (no disrespect) As for the nicest neighborhood in Inglewood, I don't think it's the Avenue Piru's hood, I think it's the Morningside Park area, bordering the IFG turf, considering they're more violent than APG.

Naw I don't think the houses in Keystone are nice. They are average looking but nothing to expensive. Plus Keystone tags their hood up alot.

I don't thiiink Stephenson Park is inside University Heights. But yeah, I feel u on what you say is nice. And in Centerview's "hood" and most of ECC 190s hood, it's nooo grafitti....and if u see grafitti one nite, it's usually gone the next day.

But I hate it when people from Carson try to act as if it's rough there, and sayin mess like "if you drive in my neighborhood and they donno u, they are gonna block u in and question u" and whatever else...I am like please, this isn't even rough to people from Beverly hills.

MY MOM GOT QUESTIONED WHEN DROPPING OFF ONE OF HER FELLOW EMPLOYEES OFF IN CARSON. SHE DRIVES A SHITTY AS CAR AND MY MOMS IS PRETTY OLD TO. SHE TOLD ME THE STORY AND SAID IT SCARED THE SHIT OUT OF HER. IT WAS DOWN NORMANDIE. She told me it was near a park so im assuming normandie park.. she say they were south east asian or something.. anyone kno who they could be

i meant normandie playground.. sorry about the caps too

normadie playgrounds is in Los Angeles off Normadie and Venice not in carson, it must be another park ur talkin about

my bad, anyone know what park is down there

playboY gangsters border beverly hills...avenue piru hood in inglewood looks likes ladera heights......venice was high property values...WEST LOS ANGELES GANGS PERIOD......MANSFIELDS FAIRFAX/WLA

Normandie park in Torrance is off of 223rd and Normandie. It is in a little strip called the "Harbor Gateway" Thats my hood homie. East Side Torrance Diablos!!1!! But there are NO ASIANS in that part of town Only Mexicans

I think the Mansfield Gangster Crip neighborhood is middle class and NO, the jungles are not in an exclusive area, but they are next to one.

I always liked the 1-11's, but I think MFGC is the richest off hand. (Black gangs in L.A. that is.)

What sets in Hollywood Hills, Santa Monica, Palos Verdes, Encino??????

Who's hoods are in the "westside" of athens? Like 126th between Figeroua and hoover, it is some nice houses over there, and people I know that live over there say it's no gangs but I don't believe em.

Are the East Coast Crips 190 in that huge area between Avalon, Wilmington, University, and Del Amo? If so, a lot of the houses I saw online were pretty ugly. Most were nice though.
