Alhambra, California – Hispanic gangs
Home > Hispanic Gangs > Alhambra
Alhambra is in the western San Gabriel Valley, about 8 miles west of downtown Los Angeles. It was originally founded as a suburb of Los Angeles in 1903 and is named after Washington Irving’s book “Tales of the Alhambra”. The city takes up a total square area of about 7.6 miles.
Since the 1950s, Alhambra has experienced separate waves of new immigrants, Italians in the 1950s, Mexicans in the 1960s, and Chinese in the 1980s. As a result, Asians make up the majority. As of 2006, 51% of residents are Asian, 35.5% are Hispanic, 28% are White, and only 1.8% are Black or African American. The total population was recorded at 85,804 in 2000.
Over 52% (44,678) of residents are foreign born, which over quadruples the national average of foreign-born people at 12.5%. 72.5% speak a language other than English in the home. 10.1% of families and 12.3% of individuals in Alhambra live below the poverty line, which is very close to the national average. 77.4% of residents have a high school degree or higher, and 30.9% have a Bachelor’s degree or higher, exceeding the national average of 27.4% of graduates with a bachelor degree.
Alhambra today does not have much of a gang presence but during the late 1970s and 1980s, the gang scene in Alhambra was heavily influenced by gang members from East Los Angeles.

I lived in Alhambra in the 70s.There were several hispanic gangs around at that time.The Lomas gang definately had the bigest influence.Several kids I knew became members at elementery school age.

all this little gangs fall short to what really runs east los angeles….
Starting a website kind of like this one forced me to do some research and I found your post to be quite helpful. My content is centered around the idea of knowledge, fun and sharing. I wish you fine luck with your web site in the future and you can be sure I’ll be following it.
Eighteenth Street in Alhambra
Mostly all West Siders from Hoover locos, a few Columbia lil cycos ‘ all Alhambra heads.
Some gone home above some doing life.
Where still here 😉
Our generation was 80’s 90’s as far as str18 banging.
Swarn Too k is a graffiti art crew that has relatives in 18st an we all grew up together. ”
Lomas was next door not in Alhambra although a few were from here and got in there. Sangra was more prevalent in Alhambra but never choose to make it part of their varrio, they went to San Gabriel.
The biggest in Alhambra is 18st or anywhere.
What u talking about m90?
Around 1990 was XVIII, STK*, WF, BCB, SG
*STK is not a gang, nor ever claimed to be one, but things would occur that required banging and they were more solid than even some gangs
and r still here making art.
I was in grammar school in Alhambra in the early 70s ,Ramona School.Lomas was by far the biggest gang back then.There was 18st around and Sangra too.ESR was close by and Monterey Park had a gang called Poorside. Luis Rodriguez references that neighborhood in his book.”Always running “
Stk was and continues to be weak, however u’ll still see some toyish bombs on the 10fwy.

v1|_31/]….what are YOU TALKING ABOUT?? STK IN ALHAMBRA ARE A BUNCH OF WEENIES!!! THEYRE ART IS STILL AROUND,, BUT AS FAR AS BEING SOLID.. IVE SEEN MORE SOLID HIGH SCHOOL MARCHING BAND MEMBERS. DIDNT WF AND KAW TAKE SMASH ON STK DURING THE 90’S? AND IF THEY WERENT GETTING CHASED THEY WERE SNITCHING! YA REAL SOLID!!!
Miguel you have no idea what the hell your talking about!! Those fools from welfares use to get smashed by STkS! those fools never did anything but rat! NO ONE EVER RATED FROM STK LEVA!! all those fools from welfares ran & they are the ones who always snitch on everyone!! unless your a welfare trying to tell lies & make yourself look good online!! but sounds like a welfare online banging on the phone or online!! same ol levas!!………….& kaw? now that is even a bigger joke!! those fools werent even ever in Alhambra! those fools were super weak!! not even going to mention those girls bcuz they never did a dam thing!! so welfare miguel your a straight FAKE!!!
LETS COMMENT ON “MIGUEL” AND “MIGUEL IS A FAKE ASS” ALHAMBRA IS A BEAUTIFUL CITY WHERE THE AVERAGE HOME AVERAGES 500.000 AND PROPERTY VALUE IS ONLY GOING UP. ALHAMBRA IS NOT A GHETTO CITY AND THE POPULATION IS MOSTLY CHINESE/CANTONESE, THERE IS A SMALLER LATINO POPULATION THERE BUT NO KNOWN GANGS OR GANG ACTIVITY. MOST CALLS AND DSTURBANCES ARE HANDLED BY THE COMMUNITY PATROL OFFICER OR THE VOLUNTEER PATROL.
Wow well i lived in Alhambra on Curtis st growing up and I do very well remember an incedent where a car load of WF ran up on about 5 or 6 STKs by the corner market on commonwealth. I never seen a group of 6 run in different directions. Lol but the ones they did get got it good.. like icu type ish.. i think they got 2 of em.. and that was only one occasion. WF was always on them tough. KAW is in el sereno and for as long as i can remember all the way back to 90 or 91 everytime i had a run in with one of them fools on the street or a party they were with the business or strapped up. I dunno how they were with STK but they went at it with Sereno and Lowell st tuff. This isnt stuff i heard it ish i saw living in that cop infested city.
Unfortunately not all Homies are “solid”, every Varrio has their f-ups, but as far as dissing and web banging , come on ese have some cletcha. I guess you really don’t know who’s schooling who!

18 st was there in the70s.Not any more though.
I remeber when white fence fed up the stks one year so bad 2 of them were sent to the hospital. (Miguel is a fake ass) know your facts before u say anything and look smart.
Alhambra is such a nice city, people are leaving the ghettos to come to come to a city like Alhambra. There has been 0 gangs in Alhambra and don’ t see any starting there either. So for all you lowlifes TRYING to start anything in Alhambra, go to East L.A. and start it there. You guys won’t last 1 day.
You sound like you want it in your butt Cindy..face in the pillow moaning loud talking about harder daddy..haha her put this in your mouth so you can hush up..
f waffles f faketeens f sad girls! f all the enemies! Varrio WestSide La Mirada Lokos 13 Gang! East LA is nothing compare in Los Angeles where all the real hoods and biggest gangs be at. f headsuckers & tampons! V.LMLS 13
Alhambra? this is a super nice area ..no gangs here lol..
For all the naive people saying there are any gangs in Alhambra, try again. Alhambra has sky rocketing property values, award winning schools, and no gangs whatsoever.
Lets keep Alhambra a gang free zone like its been for years.

That vato true frum Alhambra snitched on me lik a fin puta…f that chick and his dead homies
I grew up in Alhambra in the late 80s/early 90s and their was some Alhambra guy claiming east LA gangs. The big 2 were Whitefence and WS 18. There was some from Brick City, Primera Flats, Rockwood St, Clearance St.and I met a guy from Lincoln Heights. The taggers were STK, ATL, KCC and a few I may be forgetting. I remember a guy from Duarte getting ked on Main St. In a drive by. I moved out of there but Alhambra is a really expensive place to I’ve now with no gangs activity.
