The Youth of Chamberlain

The Westside of South Central, Los Santos is known to be a melting pot for poverty, gangs, drugs, prostitution and violence, many young teens grow up in Section 8 housing, without a real perspective for their future. The people growing up in these types of neighborhoods tend to go through a lot of stress and more often than not suffer from serious mental problems. A survey by the ULSA showed that every third individual that resides in those low-income neighborhoods is confronted by the death of someone they know before the age of 16. Kids are more often than not looking for acceptance in their community, therefore they tend to join local gangs to feel accepted. Most kids come from a broken home, being raised by a single parent or other relatives, to having drug addicted or abusive parents. Peer pressure can also be a factor to why people join gangs, as well as the lavish lifestyle gang members often portray, gang members might have nice cars, all the females, chains and guns but deep down they are broken souls, having to watch their back at all times, coping with the losses of their loved ones and so on.

The original W/S Barrio 18th Street Gang started around 18th Street and Union Avenue in the Rampart District of Los Angeles. They were originally a part of the W/S Clanton 14th Street gang, but wanted to make a separate "clique" called Clanton 18th Street and allow immigrants the opportunity to join. This proposal was rejected by the Clanton 14th Streeters, which led to the formation of the 18th Street gang. The two gangs have been bitter rivals ever since.

 

The 18th Street gang grew by expanding its membership to other nationalities and races, and it was among the first multiracial, multi-ethnic gangs in Los Santos. In the beginning, they were made up largely of second-generation Hispanics. As the 18th Street gang began to battle with more established Hispanic gangs, they began to recruit outside off the Hispanic community. There are approximately 200 separate individual autonomous gangs operating under the same name within separate barrios in the Bay, East Los Santos, South Los Santos, Downtown, Koreatown, La Puerta, Davis, Rancho and Del Perro according to the latest figures from the NDIC.
