Venice 13

Venice 13 is a Chicano street gang based in the Oakwood (Ghost Town) neighborhood of Venice, a section of Los Angeles, California, with a substantial presence in East Venice as well as the Culver City/Los Angeles border, especially around Washington Blvd. The gang dates back to the 1950s, and has long been known as the one of the most dangerous street gangs on the Los Angeles Westside. It was amongst the first Latino gangs to fight gang wars against African-American gangs, especially the local Venice Shoreline Crips which were founded in the mid-1970s. It is affiliated with the Sureños and the Mexican Mafia.
