Little Tijuana / Lil TJ Locos

[babyyoda7]

Varrio Little Tijuana Locos 13 existed in the San Fernando Valley years ago, they were on bryant street, and are now defunct, they had no relations to another gang with a similiar name that went by "Tijuana Locos / Tj Locos". I believe they started beefing with MS13 for a while, and then they just vanished, I believe the MS13 that were by this area disappeared as well, although im not to sure about that, so dont quote me.

The guy 8-Ball from Ballin on Point, was just shot by a TJ Locos, so I think these guys still exist in the valley.

Hey Alonzo, are you sure you aren't getting these two varrios mixed up? Because I use to see tags from this neighborhood back in the day, and they would always put "Lil" infront of there name, I'd always see a "Lil" infront of the Tijuana Locos tag, "LTJS13 or Lil Tijuana Locos 13" or who knows maybe the still active TJ locos stopped hitting up "Lil" infront of there name and just stuck with tijuana locos, tj locos.

I think they do still exist. I've seen a few tags from them in North Hollywood a few weeks ago, near MS Fulton Locos turf.

Little tj on Bryant street are different than the tj locos from Hollywood that are the same as the tj locos on sepulveda that beef with lst. Bryant St gang still refers to that area as the tijuanitas... I'll get back on that

Yup, I think some people are getting these two gangs mixed up, back in my day, the Lil Tj Locos were different from the Tijuana Locos, they'd even hit up "Lil Tj Locos" in their tags, or "Lil Tj", they used to beef with MS13 too

Spot on. The area around Bryant St was called Little TJ back in the days. TJLS were in the VN/PC border, near Langdon and Roscoe.

PARK PARTHENIA, A.k.a. TIJUANITAS
Northridge
LATIMES article

In the office where redevelopment plans for a slumlike Northridge neighborhood are coordinated, an artist's rendering hangs, depicting how the renovated area will look. The drawing shows a gate-guarded, tree-lined community with Mercedes-Benzes driving in and out.

The rendering shows some of the physical and social changes that are supposed to transform the blighted Bryant Street-Vanalden Avenue neighborhood at the end of three years. As the first year of the $25-million renovation project ends, the predominantly low-income Latino area already is showing dramatic signs of change.

Bryant-Vanalden, once dubbed "Tijuanita," or little Tijuana, by locals, is looking more like "Park Parthenia," the name given by the developer to fit its new, spiffy image.

Streets and alleys are cleaner, grass grows in parkways, fresh paint and decorative redwood siding adorn the outside walls of the once-graffiti-strewn apartment buildings. Last week, the first stretch of handsome wrought-iron fencing depicted in the drawing went up.

So far, 38 of the area's 453 once-dilapidated apartments have been renovated into comfortable and more modern units, complete with new carpeting, drapes and a fresh coat of cream-colored paint. City inspectors will begin checking the units this week, and the first low-income tenants are expected to move in by Christmas.

The area is also beginning to shake its crime-tarnished image. Police say arrests for such offenses as drug dealing and prostitution have markedly decreased as the result of security measures in the project.

Rules Too Strict…But in the midst of the renovation, there is confusion over the number of low-income tenants who will be allowed to stay in the Park Parthenia. City officials and the developer have given conflicting information… Indeed, scores of families have left Bryant-Vanalden in the past year. At least 355 families have moved, and about a quarter of the apartments are vacant. The result is the most noticeable change in the neighborhood: There just aren't as many people around…
