Anton Becker | 14 October, 2024 According to reports from various United Nations economic research institutes, excessive consumerism has increased at an unprecedented level in Los Santos over the past decade. Multinational clothing and entertainment corporations have flocked to the city to plant their feet and take a slice of the proverbial capitalist pie. Their feet, however, seem to rest primarily on the necks of the economically underprivileged in the city, specifically the African-American and Latino-American communities in the southern sectors. The epicenter of this consumerist orgy rests in the hills far above the oppressed classes - in West Vinewood. The bourgeoisie look down upon the rest of the city with upturned heads, as they engage in nightly pursuits of drunkenness, sex, drug use, prostitution and excessive spending. According to reports by the American Federal Trade Commission (FTC), the elite citizenry of West Vinewood typically spend more in a single week than the average Davis resident earns in a year. This oppressive economic imbalance has led to a cycle where the rich get richer and the poor remain poor, and is yet another example of the failing political and economic infrastructure of the San Andrean state. What is West Vinewood? The American Gomorrah, West Vinewood, rests within the Northern District sector of Los Santos, currently controlled by councilor Josély Martínez. The luckiest of the Latino-American diaspora from the southern sector of the city have managed, within the past twenty years, to climb the hill and a significant population currently occupies a row of apartment buildings in the lower regions of the district. Despite living in the richest district of Southern San Andreas, this Latino diaspora experiences a high rate of crime and poverty, of which the state's administration does not care to address. Surrounding the Latino-occupied zones are rows of nightclubs, bars, brothels and other dens of degeneracy and excessive western consumerism. Many of these establishments foster a "homely" atmosphere, with patrons integrating into the "community" of the various clubs. However, above this layer of homeliness is the unfortunate reality that most of these businesses are controlled by large multinational corporations and investment groups. A notable example is the now-defunct Inferno Investment Group; at its height, it controlled approximately 40% of the total nightclubs within West Vinewood, earning a staggering $5,000,000 monthly. According to leaked reports from state investigators, much of this money was funneled into clandestine endeavors, and it is alleged the proprietors of Inferno worked directly with the Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) to subvert domestic left-leaning political movements. Clearly, there is quid-pro-quo between these massive corporations and the state to subvert the democratic systems they swear to uphold. Environmental Impacts In addition to the economic damage inflicted upon the underprivileged African-American and Latino-American populations, the environmental impacts of the excessive consumerism of West Vinewood can be felt by everyone in the city. The state administration has neglected to properly sanitize the sector, except in places where foreign visitors spend their money. Take a drive through the Latino-American area, and you will see piles of trash and muck in the street that the state outright refuses to clean. Likewise, drive through the heavily tourist-oriented Eclipse Boulevard and you will see clean streets lined with expensive clubs. This is an intentional urban design to trick the minds of foreign dignitaries and rich elite, and to keep their eyes away from the true human rights abuses within the district. According to ULSA graduate and sociology professor Paul Elmhurst, "there is no question about the correlation between the wildfires in San Andreas and the arsons, and the capitalistic excess of West Vinewood. There is simply no question. Hundreds of millions of dollars pour into the district, and there is no accountability. Is the state benefiting from it? Not just in taxes, but in kickbacks? There needs to be accountability." A recent ULSA study into the environmental impacts of West Vinewood shows a heavy correlation between the large swaths of vehicle traffic on Eclipse Boulevard, and a 10% rise in carbon emissions over the past ten years. There Is a Better Way! History has shown that in countries where state investment into social programs and security services take precedence over capitalist subsidization, there are increased levels of happiness, cleanliness and moral values. In sectors within Los Santos like the Rancho neighborhood, communal living and family values are at the forefront of the socioeconomic experience. The residents defend their heritage and their way of life fiercely, and have managed to preserve their family ties for nearly a century. This is unlike West Vinewood, where national pride and honor have been replaced with greed and excess. History has proven, like with the Romans, that this way of life can not and will not function. Soon, it will cease to exist, obsolete in our evolutionary journey. There is something you can do. Friends, I urge all of you to create civil discourse and petition our state leaders for a change not only in West Vinewood, but in our entire city. I encourage students of ULSA, Davis Highschool, and other local educational institutions to get involved in politics, awaken to the reality of this city's decline, and work collectively to pivot our trajectory toward a progressive and prosperous future. Together, we can make a difference. CONTACT US: [email protected]

5 Most Dangerous Communities in Vinewood July 31, 2024 | LEAVE A COMMENT #1: Gran Vista Situated within the low-income neighborhood of West Vinewood, the Gran Vista (Spanish for “Great View”) community was originally built during World War II. Many of the homes in Gran Vista were built as part of a government project to house aircraft workers for their war effort. A construction project that was assisted by Reuben H. Fleet began in October 1941, and as a result, one of the most infamous Hispanic communities in Los Santos came into existence. Once the war was over and through most of the decades following it, the Gran Vista community saw an increase in the number of Mexican immigrants moving into the premises. In recent years, Gran Vista has seen some of the city’s most dominant Hispanic gangs. It’s rumored that a new and upcoming Sureño street gang, known as the Gran Vista 13 (GV13), has taken over the community as of late. This gang, predominantly made up of Hispanic teenagers from Vinewood, specialize in a large array of crimes while fighting for control of the community and its surrounding territory. Their turf stretches from Spanish Avenue to Eastbourne Way. According to an interactive map put together by journalists at the LS Times, property felonies such as petty theft and grand theft auto seem to be the most vogue at the moment. Occasional aggravated assaults and peddling of narcotics and firearms have also been reported in the area. Gran Vista is located north of South LS, west of Hawick, south of Vinewood Hills, and east of Burton. It’s surrounded by hillcrests that overlook Downtown LS. (W Spanish Avenue) The West Side Gran Vista 13 street gang has reigned terror on the streets of Vinewood from the early 2010s up until now. Their crime activity being so prominent at one point in time that the gang went under investigation for shootings dating back to 2014. With law enforcement cracking down on the murder rate in Vinewood, the Los Santos Police Department recently arrested two males allegedly affiliated with the Gran Vista 13 gang. The two men were indicted and arrested on two counts of felony murder and are suspected to be responsible for a series of shootings that occurred between December 2014, April 2017, and July 2018. They started off as a group of taggers known as the Gran Vista Locos, these young teenagers would climb buildings in Downtown Vinewood just to tag their crew. Their eventual transformation into a full-fledge varrio was when rival neighboring gangs started recruiting taggers through intimidation. The crew eventually began to fight back, which turned into a neighborhood of young Mexican teenagers representing a subsection of Vinewood. Cliques such as the Tiny Suspects have rose out of the evolving gang overtime. The current membership of the gang is small, they stick to adjacent alleys off of Spanish Avenue where they party and sell drugs. Gang enhancements and city funding has kept loitering and gang activity at an all-time low, Vinewood being no exception. The identities of its founding members have become almost unknown, known only to those who share their tight-knit circle. Law enforcement’s documentation of the gang is scant, and most information is confined to second-hand accounts; many believe that the original architects of the gang’s identity are either imprisoned or long gone. Nonetheless, even in their obscurity, the legacy of Gran Vista 13 endures through vibrant graffiti that tells stories of defiance and camaraderie, as well as ongoing rivalries with nearby gangs that signal the rise of a second generation. They’ve also formed an alliance and close relationship with the North Vinewood Boyz, a predominantly Hispanic gang located in the northeast of Vinewood. This partnership not only enhances their presence in the area but also provides a sense of community and support in a landscape fraught with competition and hostility. Current on-going intense rivalries are with Barrio 18 and Parkview Piru Bloods. Whilst many have discredited the return of gang violence in Vinewood, residents on the west side of the district have had enough. In an open letter, residents wonder whether the LSPD’s Gang Unit is doing a good enough job in policing the district. Anti-gang efforts over the past few years have been particularly effective in Vinewood. Combined with community outreach programs, they’ve resulted in several arrests of local gang leaders and a drop in gang membership among teens. Residents have been largely positive about the anti-gang taskforce. However, some say the LSPD isn’t doing a good enough job in suppressing gang activity as a whole. Some dispute the statistics published by the department and instead claim that gang membership is either the same or has actually risen due to inner gang struggles for power. In response to recent concerns, a spokesperson of the LSPD insisted on the importance of community involvement and stressed that “police presence and community outreach in Vinewood remain a top priority for the LSPD.”

I inherited this place from my parents , it was a holiday home at first but now it's a permanent residence for me. Though I haven't used it for a year since I was traveling America, but now I'm back, and there's a spare room available for someone to use. Description Entire ground floor apartment with open planned kitchen and living room. Private lot parking on the front side and in the alleyway facing the door. Modern aesthetic home design. High end security system. Keypad electric lock entry and exterior CCTV installed. Animal/pet friendly household. Looking mainly for long term tenants though short term tenants are welcome! Rent Price: $150 Rent Status: Available Contact me for viewings or questions at: Call/SMS #6661 Email: [email protected] ((Forum PM)) Facebrowser: Haven't gotten around to it yet~ ? About me My name is Valentin Andrieux, I was born in Metz, France. I'm twenty-two and I only recently came to America just over a year ago. I enjoy playing my guitar, I have a passion for cars though I ride my bike around the city more than I drive. Playing videogames, music..just a lot of things but those are the main things. Most distinct feature about me is my tattooed eyes, which my friends and family in France call me 'Fantôme' or 'Ghost' in English. Being technically still new to the city means I don't know anybody, so I mainly spend my time at home. What kind of person I'm looking for? Not too sure what kind of person I'm looking for as a flat mate, someone who doesn't mind me playing guitar inside from time to time to practice. The more important thing for me is someone who has patience enough to talk to someone who's first language isn't English. (I write better than I speak.) Bonus points if you teach me alittle~ ? Someone who would like to hang out with a strange looking person from time to time.
