Description
The 1970s, 1980s and 1990s saw the most violent years on the streets of Little Village mostly due to the back and forth violence between Two Six and Latin Kings as they continued to hit each other back again and again. Little Village would often be regarded as one of the more dangerous neighborhoods in Chicago. In the 21st century the violence has toned down some but this is still an area plagued with crime and is the poorest Mexican community in the city. Eventually Two Sixs and Latin Kings suppressed other gangs to the point where they really can’t claim any ownership of territory on these streets. Villa Lobos, Ridgeway Lords, Sin City Boys and Gaylords had been pushed out from this area, mainly because members have flipped to Two Six or Latin Kings.
Little Village is the hub of Chicago Mexican culture and is proud of their heritage. It is a neighborhood with great restaurants and hard working people even though gang violence is heavy in these streets. There is no need to fear passing through or shopping in this community because gang members are not trying to cause trouble with law abiding citizens for the most part. Mainly it is just gang against gang violence.
Little Village is the birthplace of the south side Latin Kings, Two Six, Sin City Boys and Ridgeway Lords.
