Grapetown Projects

The Rancho Housing Projects is an area located in the South-Eastern part of Los Santos, made up of mostly African-American and Hispanic residents. The term Grapetown was coined for the projects due to a majority of the residents during the 1950s and 1960s working at the Shackleford Grape Juice factory. With renovations in the 1980s leaving the project’s buildings purple, the nickname Grapetown remained for the projects. Originally the projects were controlled by Varrio Rancho Grape but soon after the gang split into two, the South Side Varrio Grape 13 gang and the Grapetown Crip gang which both ended up splitting the Rancho Housing Projects area.

 

Even with a split in the area between two gangs, the two gangs claiming the Grape function worked closely side by side in their everyday hustle. Even with some internal conflict breaking out from time to time, the long term bond between the two gangs held them together as problems were resolved internally and attention was focused back on making money and keeping the Grapetown Projects as a stronghold for the two gangs.

Both gangs within the Rancho Housing Projects have been credited by the Los Santos Police Department to be involved in numerous forms of criminal activity. Varying from home invasions, drug distribution, and the extortion of both legal and illegal businesses within the area.

 

The Southside Varrio Grape 13, which operates as the Flat Lokos and Tiny Wynos cliques is known for the extortion of competitive drug dealers and collecting protection money from local businesses by using the threat of burglary against them. While the cliques earn a steady cash flow through the use of extortion, they continue to move drugs throughout the area.

 

The Grapetown Crip cliques within the area, the Dust Town Grape Crips, and the Rancho Baby Locs; while making some income off of extortion like their Mexican-American counterparts, are more known for the distribution of narcotics and home invasions. In more recent times, the gang has been said to have a more increased interest in the illegal distribution of pharmaceuticals.

 

 

This faction intends to portray the south-central gang scene whilst also attempting to emulate a realistic and plausible culture within the community.
